The Great Lakes Pet Expo has been labeled Milwaukee’s Premier Pet Lovers Event by local media and is Wisconsin’s only charitable event of this magnitude.
Proceeds from this event go back into the community to help animals in need.
Held annually, this event has something for everyone. Live entertainment features amazing animal acts including some that have been featured on national programs such as The Tonight Show, Oprah Winfrey, Jay Leno and more! Several hundred exhibits feature companion animals available for adoption as well as feature the latest and greatest pet related products and services. An educational stage headlines veterinarians and industry experts teaching small groups of attendees how to better care for their pets. Finally, the expo features Wisconsin’s Largest Educational Reptile Display where attendees can meet and interact with over 50 species of reptiles.
Below are just some of the types of performances and displays that have graced the Main Stage at the Great Lakes Pet Expo. See what visitors experienced at the 2019 expo: 2019 Great Lakes Pet Expo Entertainment Guide
