Ratapalooza - Lakewood, WA 2026
Advertisement
Join us in Lakewood, WA on Saturday September 12th for a celebration of all things rats!
Ratapalooza is a family-friendly rat show event for people of all ages. Our shows started back in 2000, we have been holding multiple shows a year for all rat lovers to enjoy.
Our goals include educating the public about rats, promoting local rescue groups, and bringing together the rat community.
Ratapalooza involves a standards show (think cat or dog show on a much smaller scale) and a fun pet show as well as plenty of learning and socializing opportunities with other rat lovers. We have many breeders from across the Pacific Northwest, as well as several rescue groups who would love to fix you up with your new
best friend.
Other things to look forward to:
- Vendors selling rat merch 🛒
- Raffle 🎟️
- Arts and crafts 🎨 Create your own rat ears!
- RATTO (bingo) 📍
And more!
Admission is $15/person for the general public, and $10/person for RatsPacNW members. Parking at this venue is free! For the same cost as a night at the movies, you can join us for six hours of fun with the rat community!
Please note that rats are not sold at our events. This is because we firmly believe that rats are not impulse purchases. The wellbeing of the rats always comes first.
Ratapalooza is organized and funded by volunteers from RatsPacNW Rat Fanciers Club, a 501(c)4 non-profit organization for rat lovers from the Pacific Northwest. For more information visit the club’s website.
