HUGE free festival for dogs coming to Manchester this month
Pooches will enjoy a pawesome time
A free dog festival is coming to Manchester later this month for a huge day of fun.
Mark your calendar and unleash the fun as the Ex-Paw Extravaganza returns on Saturday, April 27th at Angel Meadow Park from 11am – 4pm.
Owners can enter their dogs into its famous dog show with five different categories including Cutest Pup, Golden Oldie, Waggiest Tail, Talentful Trickster and Best Dressed.
It’s just £4 to enter with 50% being donated to Manchester and Cheshire Dogs Home. Winners of each category will receive a goodie bag and a sought-after Ex-Paw Rosette.
Guests can also learn about how to give first aid to their furry friends with My Pet First Aid, who offer hands-on training by experienced instructors at all levels, from pet owners to pet professionals.
Manchester’s newest Pug Cafe, CuppaPug, will have pug welfare at the centre of their heart with some helpful information and advice for pug owners.
A new addition to the event this year will be breed-specific meet-ups taking place throughout the day and will be an opportunity for guests to meet like-minded doggie enthusiasts in Manchester.
Owners and pet lovers can browse a fantastic line-up of stalls selling dog wear, accessories, food and treats in case they want to treat their fur baby.
Pawsome pooches can try out the agility course which is free to use throughout the day or schedule a pupdate in the puppy play area.
Ex-Paw Extravaganza isn’t just about celebrating your four-legged companions, it also works towards making a difference to the lives of dogs in need – with 50% of ticket proceeds from its dog show being donated to Manchester and Cheshire Dogs Home.
And Foundation Coffee House will be offering FREE puppacinos for all the doggos on the day.
If hoomans get a little hungry as they watch their pride and joy have the time of their lives, they will be pleased to hear Ex-Paw has partnered with the recently re-launched Fairfield Social Club and will be providing attendees with delicious food from ISIT Kitchen.
Fairfield Social Club’s new venue on Irk Street is located right next to Angel Meadow with direct access to the park, making it the perfect place for the Extravaganza After Pawty.
The event will take place at Angel Meadow Park on Saturday, April 27th from 11am – 4pm.
Ex-Paw Extravaganza is FREE to attend. Entry tickets to the dog show can be found HERE.
