Pet lovers mark your calendar for a PAWsome day out!

We have teamed up with the Blacktown Animal Holding Facility to get tails wagging at the annual Pet Festival on Sunday 13 October from 10 am to 2 pm at the Blacktown Showground, Richmond Road, Blacktown.

Owners and their furry, feathery or scaly friends alike will unite for an action packed day celebrating pets and the families who love them.

…with special guest MC Dr Katrina Warren!

Does your pet like to flaunt their stuff? If yes, then make sure to enter your pet in the Pet Fashion Parade! Whether fancy, formal, funky, or a mix of styles, this competition is your pet’s best chance to really shine! Owners are encouraged to add to the fun by dressing up! Or maybe your pet has an amazing talent, here’s your chance to show it off!

The Contest will consist of the following categories: Best Dog and Best other Pet category.

To register, stop by at the Blacktown Animal Holding Facility information fete stall near the main entry gate. Preliminary judging will be held at the Event Information Stall at noon with the finals in the Main Arena at 12.30 pm.
