​

Exotic Pets Steal the Spotlight with Debut Reptilia Carnival and Live Insect Exhibition Featuring Over 50 Species

HONG KONG, June 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Organized by Exhibition Group, the “Premium Pet Supplies Expo 2026” (the “Expo”) is being held from today until June 7 (Friday to Sunday) at Hall 3CDE of the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. Upholding the principle of “Creating a Quality World for Pets,” the Expo brings together premium pet products and services from around the globe, including pet food and feed, beverages, apparel, toys, grooming and beauty care, cleaning products, health supplements, and enclosures, offering an ideal one-stop shopping and leisure destination for pet owners and animal lovers across Hong Kong. With the exotic pet–keeping population continuing to rise, this edition breaks the mold of conventional pet expos by placing exotic pets at center stage. For the first time, the Expo introduces a large-scale live insect exhibition, “Bug Squad,” and Hong Kong’s first major indoor “Reptilia Carnival,” extending the pet world beyond cats and dogs to embrace reptiles, insects, and a diverse array of species.

The opening ceremony was attended by Dr. Bernard Chan, Under Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Dr. Michael Chan, Honorary Chairman of Hong Kong Institute of Marketing, Ms. Angela Chan, Chairman of Hong Kong Pet Trade Association, Mr. George Lee, Vice President, Business Development, Mastercard, Ms. Julien Chen, Vice President, Marketing and Business Development, The Club, Dr. Sharon Kwok, Ambassador for Endangered Species, Mr. Kenneth Wong, Convenor of the Pet Rights Concern Unit of the Liberal Party and Mr. Carl Wong, Chairman of Exhibition Group.

Mr. Carl Wong, Chairman of Exhibition Group, said, “Pets have become an indispensable part of Hong Kong families. With the Food Business (Amendment) Regulation 2026 coming into effect and travelling with pets becoming increasingly convenient, Hong Kong is steadily evolving into a pet-friendly city, while the pet economy continues to diversify. In addition to curating premium products from around the world for cat and dog owners, this year’s Expo places special focus on the rapidly growing exotic pet market. By launching the Reptilia Carnival and a large-scale live insect exhibition for the first time, we enable pet enthusiasts of all kinds to find what they need at the Expo, while also promoting life education and introducing the public to a more diverse biological world. We are also delighted to see an increasing number of well-known brands crossing over into the pet market, reflecting the industry’s confidence in the pet economy. The Expo will continue to serve as a vital platform connecting brands with consumers.”

Live Insect Exhibition “Bug Squad” Featuring Over 50 Species Makes Its Debut — Three “World-Class” Stars Become Must-Visit Photo Spots
The “Bug Squad” makes its debut at the Expo, offering visitors young and old a life education experience that goes beyond the classroom. The exhibition showcases over 50 rare insect species from around the globe, including katydids, mantises, dynastid and stag beetles, stick insects, beetles, and arthropods. Three “world-class” star specimens command the most attention: the “Giant Chinese stick insect”, the world’s longest insect species; the “Jungle nymph,” the world’s heaviest insect species; and the “Violin Beetle” (Mormolyce), a creature most people have only ever glimpsed in documentaries. This unique exhibition provides a rare opportunity for the public to observe and appreciate these extraordinary creatures up close. Through close-up observation of the live insects’ physical forms, behaviors, and ecological roles, visitors can experience the wonders of biodiversity firsthand, nurturing curiosity about and respect for different forms of life, understanding the irreplaceable value of every species within an ecosystem, and inspiring the next generation to cherish nature and treasure all living things.

Hong Kong’s First Large-Scale Indoor Reptile Carnival Launches — Immersive Beetle Pavilion “Beetle Forest” Makes a Welcome Return
Hong Kong’s first major indoor reptile activity space, the “Reptilia Carnival,” is tailor-made for reptile enthusiasts. It features a dedicated lounge and social area where owners can bring their beloved reptile companions, meet fellow hobbyists, and browse a curated reptile marketplace stocked with a full range of supplies. Complemented by immersive photo backdrops and fun reptile workshops, the Carnival provides a one-stop gathering point for the reptile community.

At the same time, the immersive “Beetle Forest” pavilion, which proved hugely popular at last year’s Expo, makes a welcome return, allowing visitors to appreciate their unique ecology. On display are numerous spectacular beetle species, including the “Hercules Beetle” (Dynastes hercules), the world’s largest insect; the king of beetles, the Rhinoceros Beetle; the colorful Rainbow Stag Beetle; the “Borneo Atlas Beetle,” one of Asia’s largest dynastid beetles; the largest Eastern Hercules Beetle (Dynastes tityus) bred in Hong Kong — a record-holder surpassing Japan — and the nationally beloved “Japanese Giant Stag Beetle” (Dorcus hopei binodulosus). Visitors can immerse themselves in the insects’ natural world, observing at their leisure and even placing beetles on their hands for photos. Admission to this activity requires a separate ticket. The first 300 ticket holders each day will receive a complimentary random beetle keychain on a first-come, first-served basis.

World Cup Fever Sweeps the Venue — “Doggy Games” Infused with Football Fun as Furry Friends Transform into Stars
The popular “Olympets” returns with a host of entertaining competitive events, including the 50-foot sprint, Triathlon of Iron Dogs, and the weave-and-obstacle relay. To ride the wave of 2026 FIFA World Cup excitement, this year’s Games feature special football-themed elements, while a World Cup–themed photo zone invites furry companions and their owners to soak up the football frenzy together. Local pet apparel brand Momoji (Booth: 3D-F18) has also seized the moment to launch its new “MOMOJI FC” collection, drawing design inspiration from eight world-class football jerseys to create pet-exclusive scarves that transform beloved companions into pitch-side stars, ready to join their owners in celebrating the quadrennial football extravaganza.

Leading Brands Make Their Expo Debut — Cross-Industry Players Tap into the Pet Market
The immense potential of the pet economy has drawn a growing number of traditional non-pet brands into the space. This year’s Expo has attracted several prominent brands making their first appearance, extending their product development into the pet sector with new ranges designed specifically for pets and pet-owning households, and leveraging the Expo as a promotional platform to directly reach target consumers and capitalize on pet market opportunities. They include:

• Vinda Pawz (Booth: 3C-L29): Hong Kong’s No. 1 tissue brand* Vinda has launched pet pure-water wet wipes and antibacterial pee pads, certified by SGS Hong Kong dermatological testing and Germany’s Dermatest, formulated with pet-friendly ingredients to deliver a more comprehensive hygiene care experience for pet families.
