The East Coast Reptile Super Expo will bring a wide variety of exotic animals and supplies to attendees during its upcoming event, running from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The expo will feature vendors from across the country offering live reptiles, amphibians and arachnids, along with food, cages, books and other specialty supplies at discounted prices.

Organizers say the event is designed to be a family-friendly experience, with a focus on providing a clean, safe and welcoming environment for attendees of all ages. The venue offers climate-controlled space and ample free parking, allowing visitors to comfortably explore exhibits and vendor displays.

The event continues to grow each year, aiming to connect enthusiasts, collectors and families with unique animals and educational opportunities.

The Philly Vintage Flea is set to return to the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks for its 18th event, bringing together a large selection of vintage fashion from across the decades.

This one-day event will feature more than 100 vendors offering curated collections of men’s and women’s vintage clothing, spanning styles from the 1940s through the early 2000s. Each vendor will showcase their items in a pop-up shop format, creating a marketplace filled with unique and hard-to-find pieces.

Shoppers can expect a wide range of pricing, with some items available for as little as $1, while most purchases typically fall between $10 and $50, depending on rarity and condition.

Early Bird ticket holders will have the opportunity to enter two hours early at 10 a.m., giving them first access to the selection before general admission.

Organizers describe the event as an elevated flea market experience, highlighting the creativity and individuality of the vintage clothing community.
