About The Pet Show
The Pet Show is Australia’s first national pet show.
A multi-zone consumer show, it enables potential pet owners, existing pet owners and animal lovers of all kinds to immerse themselves in all-things pets.
The event’s vision is to create the perfect pet parent experience incorporating education, entertainment, and products for dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles and small animals.
A range of small pet species will be represented a The Pet Show (image supplied) “We’re excited to be back in Sydney where it all started for the Pet Show 12 months ago,” says The Pet Show Managing Director, Cameron Just.
“After first launching the event, we received an overwhelmingly positive response from consumers and experienced unprecedented demand for tickets when we headed interstate to Brisbane and Melbourne.
“It was incredible to see the appetite for a show that championed positive pet parenting and gave Aussies the chance to explore both traditional and non-traditional pets.
“The past three events have been incredible, but we want to raise the bar even higher.
“That’s why this show will not only see the return of many fan favourites but also, the addition of new elements to the Pet Show.”
