SEATTLE, Sept. 22, 2025 ~ The Oddities and Curiosities Expo is set to return to the Seattle Convention Center in Seattle, WA on October 18th and 19th, promising to be the most peculiar and exciting event of the year. This one-of-a-kind traveling showcase celebrates all things strange and extraordinary, bringing together hundreds of oddity vendors and artists from across the country.

Tickets for the event start at $10 and can be purchased on their website, https://oddities.com. The expo will also be making stops in 40 cities across the United States and Canada in 2025.

Attendees can expect a playground for the weird, wonderful, and downright bizarre at this event. From taxidermy to preserved animal specimens, dark artistry to original horror and Halloween-inspired artwork, antiques to metaphysical accoutrements, handcrafted oddities to skulls, bones, and funeral collectibles – there is something for everyone with a taste for the unusual.

But it's not just about shopping. The Oddities and Curiosities Expo offers an immersive experience with photo opportunities, tarot readings, sideshow performances, and various concessions to keep attendees entertained throughout the day.

Founded by Michelle and Tony Cozzaglio in Oklahoma, this expo has hosted hundreds of events across North America since its inception. According to Michelle Cozzaglio, "We created this expo to give odd small businesses and artists a space where they can thrive." She added that their goal is to build a community where people feel safe to be themselves among like-minded individuals who appreciate the weird and wonderful.

With its strong DIY ethos and commitment to excellence, the expo continues to grow year after year. "Our success comes from working with the best exhibitors in the world and curating every event to deliver exactly what our attendees want to see," said Michelle. "We're always looking for ways to evolve and make the experience even better for both our exhibitors and our guests."

As the original, curated event of its kind, the Oddities and Curiosities Expo remains the leading destination for the wonderfully weird. And for those looking to take their experience to the next level, there are also opportunities to purchase tickets for a day-long taxidermy class, insect pinning class, or wet specimen preservation workshop. Hosted by The Sleeping Sirens, these classes will provide students with sustainably sourced specimens and teach them the basics of taxidermy and entomology.
