Register for the 2023 Parade of Parrots

Calling all humans owned by pet birds!

Exotic Wings and Pet Things and the CPE present the 2023 Parade of Parrots taking place at the Spring Canadian Pet Expo. This participant-driven stage show is your chance to show off your feathered friend (s) while helping to educate future pet bird owners about responsible pet bird companionship. No special skills/tricks required, all you need is to bring your pet bird (can be a canary, budgie, love bird, any species of parrot etc.) and be willing to share what it means to be a responsible bird owner with the audience. Birds can be in small cages, in a carrier, or body harness safely – whatever they are comfortable with – while you parade across the stage while the show MC describes your bird.

You are not obligated to speak on stage, but we, and the audience would love to hear your perspectives on bird ownership. All ages welcome. Registration is FREE and includes 2 adult admission passes per registrant per day of participation. Remember, for this event to be a success we need your participation! While the Parade of Parrots is coordinated by Exotic Wings and Pet Things and the CPE, this event is all about you and the special relationship you have with your pet bird. Why not share your experiences with other bird fanatics?

Please fill out the form below to register. We will be in touch with details!

OMAFRA/CFIA are currently monitoring HPAI (Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza) with the return of Migratory birds to Ontario.

At this point (March 21, 2023), we are on watch for this issue. If the government issues a compliance order for Ontario this will affect the Canadian Pet Expo Bird Zone. If this happens the Bird Zone will still happen; however no birds will be able to attend the show. Please check back on the CPE website for the current status of the Bird Zone before attending the show.
