Carmichael's BarktoberFest

🐾 Carmichael’s Barktoberfest is Back! 🐾

Back for its third year after the huge success of previous festivals, Carmichael’s Barktoberfest has quickly become the Top Dog of pet-friendly fall events! This fur-friend inspired festival will once again take over Carmichael Park, bringing together hundreds of local residents, families, businesses, and—of course—their pets.

Get ready for a tail-wagging good time with:

• Doggy-and-me games & activities
• Exciting demonstrations
• A pumpkin patch
• Local pet-friendly vendor booths
• Music & food trucks
• Pet adoptions from local rescues
• And our crowd-favorite Pet Costume Contest 🎃🐶🐱

This event not only creates a paw-sitive impact for local businesses, nonprofits, and families—it also gives back! A portion of proceeds will directly benefit the Carmichael Park Dog Park, helping our four-legged friends enjoy the community year-round.

Your generosity will be celebrated in front of the community, with recognition across event marketing, social media, and onsite promotions.
