Hops & Hounds: Halloween Comes to Ivanhoe Village
About this Event
🎃🐾 Halloween is going to the dogs.
This October 31, Wild Heart Haven and Ivanhoe Park Brewing Company are bringing Halloween to Ivanhoe Village with Hops & Hounds, a free Halloween celebration for dogs, their humans, and anyone looking for a different way to spend Halloween afternoon, before going trick or treating in the evening.
Bring your friends. Bring your dog. Bring your costume.
We're building an afternoon filled with things to discover:
🎭 Dog & Human Costume Contest
From hilarious to elaborate to completely ridiculous, dogs and their humans will compete across multiple categories for prizes and Halloween glory.
🐾 The Hound Hunt
Explore Hops & Hounds, complete stops around the event, and see where the hunt takes you.
🍺 Flight of the Four Hounds
Four pours. Four Hounds. One Halloween flight. Ivanhoe Park Brewing Company puts the Hops in Hops & Hounds with a special four-beer flight created for this event.
🧠 Halloween Trivia + Prizes
Put your spooky knowledge to the test.
📸 Halloween Photo Experiences
Because some costumes deserve photographic evidence.
🍬 Trick-or-Treat Fun
Halloween surprises and dog-friendly fun throughout the afternoon.
🐕 Meet the Dogs
Meet dogs in person and discover even more looking for homes through Wild Heart's Digital Adoption Center.
🛍️ Local Vendors & Community Partners
Discover local businesses, makers, rescue organizations and organizations from around Central Florida.
🍴 Food + Drinks
Food will be available for purchase along with Ivanhoe's lineup of craft beer and beverages.
And we're not finished yet. More activities, participating organizations, vendors, prizes and surprises will be revealed as Halloween approaches.
❤️ HALLOWEEN WITH A PURPOSE
Hops & Hounds is presented by Wild Heart Haven. Behind the costumes, beer and Halloween fun is something much bigger: bringing people together around dogs, rescue and a growing community committed to giving dogs more opportunities to find their way home.

Your dog doesn't have to stay all afternoon.
We want Hops & Hounds to be fun for dogs, too. Registered Costume Contest participants will have their contest photos, and, when appropriate, short video, captured during event check-in. Once your dog's contest entry has been recorded, you're welcome to enjoy the event for as long as your dog is comfortable.
Costume Contest judging begins at 4:00 PM, with awards following. If you and your dog have already left, that's okay. We'll contact winners using the phone number and email provided during registration.
