Get ready for TerraPlaza 2025 in Budapest (Budapest), the international expo and fair dedicated to exotic animals. Set for October 19, 2025, at the Lurdy Conference and Event Center (Lurdy Konferencia és Rendezvényközpont), this vibrant gathering promises creatures big and small—rare and fascinating—in an environment that’s part showcase, part meet-up, and part lifestyle event. Over 100 selected Hungarian and international exhibitors fill 28,000 square feet, drawing several thousand animal lovers to what is now Hungary’s leading small pet expo.
Something for Every Animal Lover
TerraPlaza is an experience that will intrigue anyone, whether you want to speed through in two hours or stay all day, soaking up every detail. The biggest names in reptile and aquarium hobbies will be on hand, showcasing their latest species, unique animal morphs, and the newest care tips and secrets. You’ll get the hottest trends firsthand, straight from the breeders themselves.
Much More Than Reptiles
While it started as a reptile event, TerraPlaza has expanded massively—especially into aquarium life. It’s now Hungary’s biggest event for both terrarium and aquarium fans, and it just keeps growing. The program isn’t just about animal displays; there are also conservation workshops, animal welfare sessions, and educational activities to help both newcomers and seasoned experts.
A Community That’s Alive and Growing
Expect to meet not only exotic animals but also passionate people eager to share their knowledge. With over 40,000 community members, you can connect, exchange ideas, and perhaps find your new favorite species to take home. Pets can be purchased directly from specially selected breeders, ensuring you receive expert advice at the source—and only well-fed, healthy, vet-checked animals are available for sale, under strict animal welfare and legal regulations.
Visiting Details
Opening hours are from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and tickets are available online or at the door. Children under 6 enter free. After 4:00 PM, everyone pays a flat $4 entry. In 2025 and 2026, TerraPlaza returns multiple times to Budapest (Budapest), making this an ongoing, can’t-miss event for fans of the weird, wild, and wonderful world of exotic pets.
