Pensacolaโ€™s biggest dog Mardi Gras celebration is back โ€“ and this year, weโ€™re going totally Paw-some 80โ€™s! ๐ŸŽ‰ Presented by Perfect Plain Brewery, Hanto & Clarke, and Jet 100.7, with official krewe support from the Krewe of Hip Huggers, the 5th Annual Pensacola Paw-di Gras is WolfGang Pensacolaโ€™s signature philanthropy event benefiting the Escambia County Department of Animal Welfare.
Recently crowned Best Pet Event in InWeeklyโ€™s Best of the Coast โ€” and runner-up for Best Charity Event and Best Parade โ€” this award-winning block paw-ty transforms Downtown Pensacola into a tail-wagging Mardi Gras wonderland for both two- and four-legged festival goers.
Enjoy:
๐Ÿถ The Paw-rade โ€“ Our doggone spectacular parade struts right through the heart of downtown.
๐ŸŽญ Costume Contests โ€“ Dress your pup (and yourself!) for a chance to win bragging rights.
๐ŸŽช Vendors & Sponsors โ€“ Shop unique finds and meet businesses that love our community.
๐Ÿป Food & Drinks โ€“ Savor local eats, craft beer, and festive cocktails.
๐ŸŽฏ Games for Humans & Dogs โ€“ Fun, interactive activities for all ages.
๐ŸŒˆ Rainbow Bridge Memorial Area โ€“ A heartfelt space to honor beloved pets whoโ€™ve crossed the rainbow bridge.
In just 3.5 years, Paw-di Gras has raised over $85,000 in monetary donations and goods for local animals in need โ€” and weโ€™re not slowing down!
Grab your beads, leash up your pup, and join thousands of festival-goers for this canโ€™t-miss Mardi Gras celebration. From Pensacola to New Orleans, thereโ€™s nothing else like it!
