About this Event
Presented by Fort Greene PUPS, the Great PUPkin is Brooklyn's largest and most outrageous dog costume contest. Creativity is key! We love to see homemade, inspiring costumes. Judges help pick the favorites, but the audience decides the winner!
Your entry fee is a tax-deductible donation to Fort Greene PUPS, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization! Your receipt will serve for tax purposes. Thank you for your support!
After preregistering, you will receive a receipt, which you should print or bring on your phone to check in starting at 11:00 a.m. on the day of event.
IMPORTANT: If you do not check in at the registration table located at Monument Plaza (top of stairs) by 11:45 a.m., your entry will be forfeited. Judging of all entrants begins at the bottom of the monument stairs at 12pm sharp!
The PUPkin is FREE to attend - registration is ONLY required if your dog is competing!
