Jacksonville to Welcome the Bizarre this September
Bringing the strange and wonderful to different cities, The Oddities and Curiosities Expo is a traveling event featuring eccentric vendors and entertainment. The expo, which was founded by Michelle and Tony Cozzaglio in Oklahoma, has hosted hundreds of events across the North American continent, says PRNewswire.
Over the years, demand for the expo has grown, transforming it into a large-scale event in cities across North America.
“We created this expo to give odd small businesses and artists a space where they can thrive,” said Michelle, adding, “Our goal is to build a community where people feel safe to be themselves, surrounded by like-minded folks who appreciate the weird and wonderful.”
“Our success comes from working with the best exhibitors in the world and curating every event to deliver exactly what our attendees want to see,” Michelle said.
