lappiemum Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Lappiemum: I highly recommend it. I have gone 3 yrs in a row only last year i had a stand so couldnt leave to look at as much things as i wanted to. I did manage to see the breed stands though and got some golden cuddles. May do the Saturday - sunday i think is a Kepala day.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pointees Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Think I might try to go. Sounds interesting, and all those cuddles sound great! Is there a website? Do you know what time it starts? Where it is? Etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff'n'Toller Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Their site is giving me a malware warning but it's Caulfield Racecourse (parking on site, costs) Fri/Sat/Sun 10-4 or 10-5pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pointees Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Thanks for that! What day is normally better, Friday or Saturday? Might see you there Lappiemum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sankari Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I am going to Caulfield Expo as a display stand with Rabbits Friday and Saturday and I am unsure what way to go. Last year my friend took me with her but she's not going this year and dont really wish to take 6 rabbits on a train! I am going from Mill Park and if possible want to avoid freeways! I dont drive so have got my mum to take me and drop us off, and she REALLY hates driving on freeways as all the signs here there and everywhere scare her. Any help appreciated. Pointees: I find Saturday VERY busy. Well it was last year. This will be my 4th year going. First two i went to look and buy stuff and it wasnt overly crowded in there on the friday. Saturday more people coming through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perfect partners Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Think I might try to go. Sounds interesting, and all those cuddles sound great! Is there a website? Do you know what time it starts? Where it is? Etc? It's at Caulfield Racecourse. 10 am - 5 pm each day, I think, although one source said 10-4 on Friday. There is a website but it has very little info - just type in Melbourne Pet Expo and you should get onto it. I think entry was $15 this year with discounts for seniors, etc. Does anyone know if it's worth going on the Friday, or is there less to see that day?

menacebear Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I'll be there with the big red meathead for the flyball demo on sunday. That should be interesting, he has the attention span of a gnat. He'll also have a little costume for when he isnt in the ring so I'd say he'll be fairly noticable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm266 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 LC: Head down Plenty Rd to the Bypass, head towards Heidelberg and Burke Rd. Once you are on Burke Rd follow it until the end at the Princes Hwy. Once at the Princes Hwy go straight across. You will see Monash Uni's Caulfield Campus it should be on your right, I think there is a park/oval on the left then turn left at the little roundabout continue on under the railway bridge and you will see Caulfield Racecourse. I used to do this trip frequently you have to go through Camberwell Junction and Burke Road can be a bit slow at times. Trying to get from north to south can be a pain sometimes. I would leave at least an hour for the trip Alternatively try Hoddle St/Punt Rd and the Princes Hwy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evolving Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Lucycharzie what time do you need to be there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sankari Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Hi all, i've worked out which way to go, allowing about an hour just in case. I'm planning to get there at about 9am so that there will be someone i can ring inside to come out to help me carry a HUGE 5kg English Angora and a playpen to put it in. I better start packing for tomorrow and get an early night soon or else i will burn out the next 2 days and not be able to go to kepala sunday.
