Interactive Zoomie Zone
Let your dog run wild (safely) in a specially designed off-leash play zone. Separate areas for different size dogs make it a perfect, energy-burning playground for all types of pups.
Red Carpet & Canine Kissing Booth
Get your glam on! Strut down the red carpet with your pup for professional photos, then seal the moment at the adorable Canine Kissing Booth.
Doggy Disco with Live DJ
Glow under the stars at our doggy disco. A live DJ will keep the vibe electric with tracks that’ll have you — and your pup — moving all night long.
Delicious Food Trucks
Come hungry! Food trucks will be serving up gourmet meals for humans alongside pup-approved treats and doggy menu options.
Agility Demos & Have a Go!
Be inspired by top canine athletes showing off their agility skills. Afterward, your dog can try a simplified course in a relaxed, fun environment — no experience needed!
