I came across a flyer today for the Pocono Mountain Reptile Expo aka Reptile Palooza and I’ll be honest – I’ve never been to a reptile expo before, so I can’t exactly give advice on what to expect but if you’re into reptiles, or if you have kids that are it looks like they will have plenty of reptile fun for all. The Gatorboys from Animal Planet will be there(available for VIP guests – see ticket prices below), as well as 1000s of reptiles, amphibians, supplies and more. From the sound of it “Reptile Breeders Show & Sale” if you’re shopping for a reptile I would imagine you’d have your pick of the litter(that’s an animal pun but I’m not quite sure that applies to reptiles…).
There will be a unique alligator wrestling experience(available for VIP guests – see ticket prices below), door prizes and more. For info and tickets you can visit their website at www.ReptilePalooza.com and for Fernwood package details(if you’re coming from out of area and need a place to stay) you can view their Reptile Expo package information on their website.

I might advise you to attend the Havre de Grace, MD show instead. These guys are amateurs, never done a show, and may have a conflict of interest.
Real excited you found our flyer out there and thanks for posting. Its going to be a great show. The GatorBoys roadshow will be having 3 events throughout the day, with a special hands on event for VIP ticket holders. Its going to be a great opportunity for both new and seasoned reptile owners to come and find that new pet and supplies.
Catgirl…..everyone has to start somewhere! We have been vending at and assisting with other reptile shows for years and are excited to bring this event to the Poconos. And to have the GatorBoys road show, one of Animal Planets most watched shows? I mean come on, thats not too shabby!
We look forward to seeing everyone at the show, being hosted at the Fernwood Resort. Special room rates apply to all attending the show.
