Dog festival Dogstival has announced that it is returning for 2024 taking place on Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 June.
The two-day event also returns to its most successful venue to date, Burley Park in the heart of the New Forest.
The event plans to have room for 10,000 attendees and plans to include more ‘have a go’ activities than any other festival in the UK.
More than 120 stands are also expected offering an array of products and services for hound and human needs.
Some of the highlights include Barkour, Dogstival’s giant canine approved adventure playground and The dog friendly Muddy Paws Tavern which will serve dog beer and treats.
Naturo natural pet food returns as headline sponsor, with the Naturo Main Arena being the focal point for the festival.
Richard Nowell, Dogstival co-founder, said: “This will be our sixth Dogstival and winning the Best Pet Day Out at the Animal Star Awards, along with returning to our spiritual home of Burley Park has given us a great reason to celebrate and make this our most exciting, action-packed event to date. Every year we add new canine-approved entertainment and cram more activities for dogs to try and enjoy.”
Eva Mooney, marketing manager at Naturo, added: “We are absolutely delighted to be joining Dogstival for the second year running. Dogstival is our favourite event of the year, and we can’t wait to meet all the wonderful pups, pet owners and vendors at this year’s event. We are back and bigger than ever with exciting games and prizes to be won, along with spectacular displays and competitions at the Naturo Main Arena.”
