You’ll find plenty of creepy-crawly fun during this celebration of spiders. The main draw: the Tarantula Derby, in which owners pit their pets against each other in a race through tubes. Overcome (or inspire) your fear of tarantulas by posing for photos with arachnids, then submit your legs for a hairiest-limbs contest.
