Join us at Hamilton's first downtown festival for dog lovers! A community picnic designed for you, your dog, and your dog's friends.
About this Event

Wanna go on a picnic?

We're taking over Strachan Linear Park and turning it into a dog-friendly village fete. Picture local vendors, yummy eats, fun and games, photo ops, prizes and more.. alongside 80 dog-friendly picnic blankets (that you can reserve for free!)

Meet neighbours, make friends, and celebrate dog-friendly space and community - with Hamilton pups as a natural ice breaker!

You'll find:

• Food vendors with yummy treats for you in the cul-de-sac at the end of Strachan St East.
• Pet vendors (treats for your pup!) and dog-friendly fun near the Mary St Pedestrian Bridge.
• 80 free picnic blankets set up between John & Ferguson, with 3 time slots available for your group to enjoy a picnic.

How does a Puppy Dog Picnic work?

• Book a free picnic blanket for your group. We provide the blanket and stake for securing your pup's leash. Your spot is yours for a full 2-hour seating.
• Choose a blanket near your friends, or book multiple blankets for your group. Contact us directly ([email protected]) to book 4 or more blankets, or if you want to host a large group meetup at the picnic.
• Enjoy dog-friendly activities and vendor treats for you and your pup - or just chill on your blanket!
• Stay cool and hydrated with our water station
• If you want to keep your blanket after your picnic, please add to your order here, or visit the Information Booth to purchase!
