Is there food available at the Show?

There are a variety of food vendors at the Edmonton EXPO Centre, including a food court a short walk down the main hall from the show. Please note that the cafe and concession area are under Expo “jurisdiction”–meaning, what will be open and serving food will be dependent on what is happening at the EXPO Centre that weekend. We make an effort to have one or two concessions within the Show as well.

Can I bring my pet to the Show?

Although we recognize you may want to bring your slightly fluffier friends with you, for everyone’s safety (including your pet’s!), we ask that all animals please remain in the comfort of their own homes. On-duty licensed (by the Alberta Government) service animals are an exception, of course.

Can I adopt or buy an animal at this Show?

No. We do not want to encourage impulse buys of animals, so we do not allow any animals to be purchased or adopted off the Show Floor. However, you may state your interest to the staff of the rescue or breeder and start the adoption process for the week following the Show!

I'm coming from out of town. Where can I stay?

There are a few options when it comes to accommodations. We recommend the use of a site like Expedia.ca* to find the hotels of your liking in the area. *Selections are not in any way affiliated or officially endorsed by Family Productions Inc. or the Edmonton Pet Expo.

Do I need to have cash for the Show?

Although a lot of exhibitors will have POS Debit/Credit machines, some do not. We recommend that you come to the show with cash in your wallet!

Are ATMs available?

Yes. There are a few ATMs located throughout the Edmonton EXPO Centre. However, the fees on these ATMs may be higher than you’re used to – so it’s probably best to be loaded with them dolla dolla bills!

What do I do if I lose something at the Show? Is there a lost and found?

Absolutely. If you have lost an item, please come to the Show Office located near Hall E and speak with us. We will do our best to reunite you with your lost possession(s)!

Is this an annual event?

Yes, we are here every year!

Can I bring my stroller onto the Show Floor?

Sure thing – we understand that the little ones may need a break from walking every now and then.

Is the Edmonton EXPO Centre/Show wheelchair accessible?

Yes, there is ample room to safely and easily maneuver throughout the building and on the Show Floor.

Are there wheelchairs available at the Show?

While the Edmonton EXPO Centre IS wheelchair-friendly, unfortunately there are no wheelchairs on-hand for public use.
