Details
Step into the wonderfully weird at the Austin Oddities & Curiosities Expo 2026, landing at Palmer Events Center on June 27, 2026 at 10:00 AM. This is the place for lovers of the strange, unusual, and bizarre—an all-ages celebration of everything delightfully offbeat.
Expect a hall packed with hand-selected vendors, dealers, artists, and small businesses showcasing the darkly delightful side of creativity. You’ll spot taxidermy, preserved specimens, original artwork, horror and Halloween-inspired pieces, antiques, handcrafted oddities, creepy clothing, skulls, bones, funeral collectibles, quirky jewelry, and plenty more. If it’s weird in the best possible way, it probably belongs here.
Beyond the shopping, the expo brings the spectacle to life with sideshow performers throughout the day and classes where you can learn the craft of taxidermy. It’s part marketplace, part show, part community hangout—and completely built for curious minds who love discovering something they’ve never seen before.
What makes this event stand out is its DIY spirit and its commitment to a safe, welcoming space for fans, collectors, creators, and first-timers alike. The Oddities & Curiosities Expo is known as the original traveling event focused entirely on oddities vendors and dark artists, and it proudly leans into that one-of-a-kind energy.
