Jamil Temple

Columbia, SC 29210 |
For over seven years the South Carolina Reptile & Exotic Animal Show thrived at the Jamil Temple in Columbia, South Carolina, before moving to other cities and venues. In November 2006, under new Repticon management, the show made a triumphant return to its original location. We were thrilled with the amount of positive feedback we received about the show being back where it belonged. Over the next two years the show grew with complete vendor sell-outs, an addition of a third show to the calendar year, and packing in as many vendors as possible with 230 tables in November of 2009. Returning again three times in 2010 with this popular favorite, be sure not to miss Repticon Columbia as it continues to develop, currently the largest and hottest hot show in the South!
