Following the great success of the 2024 event we've already booked the Drayton Manor conference facility for 2025. Big thanks to all who attended in 2024 and completed the feedback survey - your views and thoughts will be feeding into the planning for 2025.

More information and ticket booking will be available when we can - meantime, please save the date in your diary!

We're a little behind the normal planning schedule but don't panic - the organising team are hard at work sorting out speakers and sponsors! We already have some great speakers confirmed with provisional talk topics:

Bart Spanoghe - keeping and breeding Lacertids

Paul Tapley - Neurergus kaiseri care and breeding plus CITES paperwork experiences

Marie Kubiak - reptile reproductive problems

Tom Marriott - integrating wild observations into captive care

Mark O'Shea - topic TBC

Francis Cosquieri - topic TBC but likely to be something on snakes...!

Lori Torini - next level reptile training

Erin Hills - topic TBC from her team's ongoing research into reptiles in captivity

Chas Thompson - REPTA update

There'll be more - plus we're planning to offer a number of practical workshops during the weekend, on a variety of topics - full details will be available as soon as we've finalised......and once we have all that sorted, we'll open ticket booking.
