2010 Show Dates July 10 & 11		Gwinnett County Fairground 2405 Sugarloaf Parkway Lawrenceville, GA 30045

In January 2007, thousands of guests came out to the Atlanta Reptile and Exotic Animal Show to continue a six year tradition at a great new location at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds. The success of that show and the following summer show in July at the same location has now established a new tradition of a semi-annual show in Gwinnett County. Repticon returned twice in 2009 in the newer, nicer, and larger Fairgrounds facility that was popular with vendors and guests. This growing show continues to delight thousands of guests in one the nation's largest metro areas, so if you call the Atlanta area home, head out for the biggest and most exciting reptile show in Georgia!
