Get ready for one of Bangkok’s most exciting pet events this long weekend, with Pet Expo Championship 2026 returning to Queen Sirikit National Convention Center from July 30th to August 2nd. This anticipated showcase, organised under the theme “Together Through Friendship,” promises spirited competitions, playful experiences, and enticing retail offers.
From lively contests highlighting the skills and beauty of a wide range of pets to engaging workshops and captivating exotic-animal zones, there’s plenty to discover, whether you’re a dedicated pet parent or simply an animal lover eager to meet some charming creatures.
Those attending can explore over 600 booths offering everything they might need for the health and well-being of their furry companions. With the event taking place over the long weekend, guests can enjoy a fun and worthwhile outing filled with surprises at every turn.
Shop, Explore, and Embrace the Bond Between Pets and People
N.C.C. Management & Development Co., Ltd., one of the key event organisers in Thailand, is hosting the annual fair, which attracts thousands of visitors each year. More than 70,000 participants are forecast to attend the 2026 edition, with spending over the course of four days expected to climb past 550 million baht, marking a 10% rise from the previous event.
Its growing popularity reflects the continued expansion of the nation’s pet market, spurred by the pet humanisation trend, as owners increasingly regard their adored companions as integral family members and are willing to spend more on their nutrition and quality of life.
Beyond the commercial appeal, Pet Expo Championship 2026 creates a lively and inviting platform for industry professionals and the public to connect, uncover new developments, share knowledge, and celebrate the strong bond between people and their beloved pets.
Bringing together more than 200 local and international companies across QSNCC’s Halls 6–8, this exhibition will feature pet nutrition, grooming products, fashion, accessories, and toys. Esteemed veterinary hospitals, clinics, and pet hotels will also present their services.
This year’s international line-up includes numerous exhibitors from South Korea displaying their latest innovations and product collections. Among the highlights are the famous “Cat Bang” cat basket, which has gone viral for its eye-catching design, as well as a marvellous selection of colourful pet-fashion items, all available with exclusive show-only promotions.
Away from the bustling shopping aisles, educational workshops will provide expert insight into exotic-animal care and other related topics. Renowned influencers and celebrities are also set to make appearances, adding an extra dose of excitement to the energetic show.
Experience Thrilling Competitions and Epic Animal Encounters
Visitors can look forward to an excellent programme of dog competitions, including agility, high-jump contests, and zigzag races, as well as fitness and yoga activities. Internationally recognised rabbit and hamster contests are also scheduled to take place during the expo.
Thailand’s first sugar glider championship will bring a thrilling twist to the line-up, featuring rope climbing, delightful costume showcases, and jelly-eating challenges. A gecko beauty contest will crown the reptiles with the most striking patterns, while the Boa Contest 2026 promises plenty of excitement as a captivating variety of snakes compete for top honours.
Also drawing great attention is the My Dog Anywhere Challenge, which takes canines and their handlers through various real-life scenarios to test obedience and teamwork. Special prizes will be awarded to the winners of each competition held during this four-day event.
For rare animal encounters, visitors may head to the Exotic Pet Land zone, where they can meet marmosets, Indian star tortoises, several gecko species, snakes, and other intriguing creatures. Meanwhile, the Pet Village area invites attendees to get up close with adorable animals, such as capybaras, meerkats, miniature horses, pygmy goats, and miniature pigs.
With so much to discover, Pet Expo Championship 2026 is well worth visiting — admission is 20 baht per person, whilst pets can enter for free. There is ample parking at and around QSNCC, and visitors can also get there by MRT, although pets are not permitted on trains.
The epic gathering runs between July 30th and August 2nd, welcoming guests from 10am to 8pm, except on August 1 and 2, when doors open at 9:30am. More details are available on the event’s Facebook page, and tickets can be purchased through the official website.
