"Comcast is focused on delivering entertainment and connecting people to what's important in their lives. We look forward to welcoming thousands to this family-oriented event."

This year's EXPO will showcase exciting new attractions like the 30 foot long inflatable "King Croc" slide, all the while promoting animal welfare. Also coming along for the ride is Steve Thomas, who will be available for autographs on Saturday from 11 AM to 2 PM.

ANIMAL PLANET EXPO enchants and entertains people nationwide, featuring such spectacular attractions as fur-raising stunts from high-flying Frisbee dogs, breathtaking exotic live animal presentations, and twists on classic games such as Pin the Tail on the Puppy and Plink-o. Held in the center of the venue, Frisbee dog show times are 11 AM, 12:30 PM, 2 PM and 3:30 PM, but make sure to get there early to participate in the Planet Green Frisbee toss! Also held in the center of the grounds are live exotic animal presentations on the R.O.A.R Stage, bringing some of the world's most striking animals, including pythons, vultures, and kinkajous, will take place at 10:30 AM, 11:30 AM, 1 PM and 2:30 PM.

Making its debut at this year's ANIMAL PLANET EXPO is Planet Green Experience, an engaging eco-friendly exhibit designed to inspire better living for people and animals. Planet Green Experience will bring to life the mission of the first and only 24-hour eco-lifestyle network, Planet Green, through an interactive trivia game and by showing Expo guests just how fun going green can be by letting them take an eco-photo or hopping on an eco-bike for a ride. Planet Green Experience seeks to educate and inform people about the power of being part of a movement that will have a lasting and powerful impact on the future of the planet. In the Planet Green Experience are several eco-friendly elements including the geodesic dome, solar-powered fans and aluminum fencing. Planet Green Experience is sponsored by Saturn and SC Johnson.

ANIMAL PLANET EXPO is bringing back R.O.A.R with a new twist. This summer EXPO invites all guests to R.O.A.R. for Saving the Planet, a simple yet effective way for event attendees to show their support and help be a spokesperson for the well being of animals and our planet. R.O.A.R is Animal Planet's nonprofit animal advocacy partnership with leading animal organizations that encourages people to Reach Out, Act, and Respond in helping to make the world a better place for animals. Promises can be as simple as putting aside time everyday to play with the family pet, promoting conservation, or supporting a favorite wildlife foundation. Also back by popular demand is the impressive R.O.A.R Stage boasting a 16'x19' LCD video screen giving all event attendees the chance to watch anything and everything going on at EXPO no matter where they are on the grounds.

Also returning to this year's tour is the Pet Den, a wonderland of information sponsored by the makers of Fresh Step(R) litter. The makers of Fresh Step(R) litter and Animal Rescue League of Boston will provide pet adoption opportunities and helpful information on how to find the perfect pet for your family in addition to hosting "Ask the Vet" sessions, where pet owners can meet one-on-one with local veterinarian to ask pet-related questions.
