Discover dog-friendly events and shows taking place across the UK. Events may include dog festivals, companion shows, agility displays, competitions, demonstrations, have-a-go activities, workshops and family days out where dogs can join in or come along as visitors.
Check each listing for the date, location, ticket arrangements and activities available. Look for any entry requirements, age restrictions, vaccination rules or equipment you may need to bring. Some events can be busy, noisy or physically demanding, so consider whether the surroundings and planned activities will suit your dog’s temperament, fitness and confidence around unfamiliar people and animals.
Contact the organiser directly before travelling to confirm that the event is proceeding and that dogs are permitted in the areas you intend to visit. Ask about parking, accessibility, water points, shaded or quiet spaces and whether dogs must remain on a lead. Bring water, suitable waste bags and anything your dog needs to stay comfortable. Never leave a dog unattended in a vehicle, and be prepared to shorten your visit if the weather becomes unsuitable.
