Today's Hours
Crosstown Exotics is a reptile and bug show that travels throughout Chicagoland providing hands-on education entertainment. Our lineup of prehistoric creatures consists of a mixture of reptiles, amphibians, and bugs. From African giant bullfrogs and hissing cockroaches to a 16ft Burmese python and giant tortoises. Everyone gets to interact with the animals for an experience unlike anything you’d receive at your local zoo. We take pride in providing memorable encounters with our extensive collection cold blooded ambassadors.
Our mission is to promote conservation through presentation. We believe in “hands-on so the species lives on”. If someone can interact with an animal, they are more likely to want to save it.
Our presentations are interactive, entertaining and create an impactful educational experience. We are fully insured and pride ourselves on the safety and handling of our animals.
Crosstown Exotics has performed for communions celebrations, scouting events, birthday parties, block parties, conventions, festivals and holiday parties. Crosstown Exotics has also preformed for school assemblies, park districts and libraries all over the Chicagoland area.
