Zoetis invites attendees to its new location and experience at the 2026 World Dairy Expo. This year, Zoetis is moving from the Exhibition Hall to the Coliseum Lower Level. Designed as a welcoming place for dairy producers, veterinarians, industry partners and experts from across the dairy industry, the new Zoetis space will give attendees multiple ways to connect, engage and experience what’s moving dairy forward. Throughout the week, attendees will be able to hear from visionary dairy leaders and industry experts during the Dairy On stage talks, gather over Wisconsin-inspired favorites at the Milky Whey Lounge, add their farm to the Born of the Bond Wall and explore milestones that have shaped dairy innovation on their way to a railside view of the Coliseum showring.
“World Dairy Expo has always been about bringing the dairy community together, and we wanted the new Zoetis space to reflect that spirit,” said Leah Beyer, Head of Marketing Communications, U.S. Livestock, Zoetis. “Our new World Dairy Expo space is built around what makes this industry strong, and those are relationships, shared ideas and a drive to keep moving dairy forward. Whether producers come for one of the Dairy On stage talks or take in a railside view of the showring, we want them to leave with a new connection, a new idea or a new perspective they can take back to their dairy.”
