Pet parents, get ready to paw-rty with your furry babies, as the much-awaited dog-friendly 'Feastival' is making a comeback for its spring edition on 9 March. Taking place at Al Habtoor Polo Resort in Dubai, the festival will be held between 11am to 9pm, promising a day filled with woof, fun, and food. Additionally, it offers free entry and parking for all attendees. However, as a pet parent, you have to carry your furry one's passport with proof of their annual vaccinations.
What's In The Store For Your Dog At The Feastival
The highlight of the event is the dog show, commencing at 3pm, featuring various entertaining games such as the sack race, egg and spoon race, best Easter bonnet, bad hair day, best rescue, and waggiest tail. These contests will be judged by renowned dog training expert, Phoebe Peppiatt, with prizes and rosettes awarded to the winners. The contest will run until 6.20pm, with a short break between 4.20pm and 5pm.
In addition, your beloved furry companions can join in the Hay Bale Racing competition, where dogs compete against each other in a race over hay bales. The top three fastest dogs will earn prizes and bragging rights. Bring your pup along and indulge in a day of celebrations, music, and tasty food while witnessing these agile four-legged athletes showcase their speed and agility! And when it's time to cool down, the Cool Down Zone provides multiple paddling pools for dogs to relax and enjoy.
Furthermore, pampering pods will offer grooming services for pets, provided by DOOG for only Dhs 100. Throughout the day, guests can enjoy music from live bands and DJs, ensuring a lively atmosphere for everyone to enjoy.
