NYC Griffs Spring Meet up 2026!

Brussels Griffon Meetup

Saturday, May 9th | 3–5 PM
Wag + Bone
37-05 30th St, Long Island City, NY 11101

The pitch is calling! ⚽️🏆

Spring is in full bloom, and we’re kicking things off with our NYC Griffs World Cup Party — a soccer-themed Brussels Griffon meetup celebrating community, style, and serious Griff attitude.

We’d love to see your pups dressed in:
⚽️ Soccer jerseys & team colors
🏆 Sporty-chic World Cup fits
🌸 Or — if you don’t have a soccer look — your best spring finery (florals, pastels, bowties, sunnies all welcome!)

Costumes are encouraged, never required. Griff confidence is always enough.

• Light refreshments for humans and pups
• A professional photographer capturing all the goal-worthy moments
• Plenty of photo ops and trophy-level cuteness
• That unmistakable NYC Griffs energy

$25 – Entry for 1 dog + 1 human
$15 – Additional same-household Griffs
$15 – Additional same-household humans

Tickets must be purchased in advance so we can plan accordingly. Prices will increase on April 15th to encourage early planning (and help fund the meetup!).

100% of ticket sales — and then some — go directly toward producing our events. Our meetups are self-funded and not-for-profit, and early purchases help us keep these gatherings fun and sustainable for our community.

• This event is exclusively for Brussels Griffons and Affenpinschers
• Per venue policy, pups must be up to date on bordetella, distemper/parvo, and rabies vaccinations
• All dogs must remain supervised at all times

While we do everything we can to create a safe and welcoming environment, organizers are not responsible for pet accidents, injuries, or incidents that may occur during the event.

Cleanup supplies will be available throughout the space. We encourage everyone in our community to help keep Wag + Bone beautiful — if you see something, please help take care of it, even if it wasn’t your dog and you didn’t see it happen. That’s how we keep these events running and maintain great relationships with our venues.

Closest Option:
Take the N or W train to 39th Avenue–Dutch Kills (3-minute walk)

Whether your Griff is Team Red, Team Blue, or just here for the treats — we can’t wait to see you on the field.

Let’s make it a goal-worthy afternoon. 🐾⚽️🌷
