It's not often that adults have the opportunity to see a Reptile Man performance but he will be doing a full show at Celebrate Shoreline on Saturday, August 15, 2026 at 12:30pm on the Family Stage.

The Reptile Man, Scott Petersen, has been staging shows for decades around Puget Sound, primarily in elementary schools and other venues with children. 

His life work is to educate children about reptiles from around the world.

He has a permanent location in Monroe, Washington.

Celebrate Shoreline is being held at Cromwell Park, 18030 Meridian Ave N, Shoreline, WA 98133 from 12 - 9pm. Family activities are 12 - 6pm. Food trucks will line the park to offer a wide variety of food and treats for purchase.
