Oddities & Curiosities Expo — San Diego 2026
The same caravan, different city. The Del Mar Fairgrounds, January 10-11, 2026 — two days of taxidermy, antiques, wax sculpture, and the collected strange.
The expo is the original touring showcase built for lovers of the dark, the different, and the beautifully bizarre. Vendors travel coast-to-coast with one-of-a-kind pieces: animal skulls and bones, handcrafted oddities, horror clothing, vintage quack medical devices, funeral collectibles, and artwork that doesn't belong anywhere else. The caliber of curation is serious — this isn't a flea market.
Live sideshow performers take the stage throughout the day. Hands-on specialty classes run alongside the expo floor, including taxidermy and entomology options for those who want to leave with a skill. Advance tickets: 5. Door: 0. Kids 12 and under free. The Del Mar Fairgrounds setting adds an unexpected layer — the same grounds that host the county fair, now running something considerably stranger. Returns annually.
