Steel City Mega Pet Expo: Where Passion Meets Pets — Year Two!
The Steel City Mega Pet Expo returns for its second year on August 28–30, 2026, and after a smaller debut last year, this year’s show will be much bigger, more exciting, and more inclusive for pet lovers across all species. This isn’t just another pet show—it’s a celebration of the bond between people and animals, designed to unite dog owners, cat lovers, reptile keepers, amphibian fans, small-mammal owners, bird enthusiasts, and everyone in between. No matter what kind of pet you love, there’s something here for you.

- Dogs
