Woofstock In Dubai
Get ready to pamper your doggos for a rad day out, as Woofstock is happening at Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club. The dog-friendly festival is scheduled for the 4th of March, a Saturday. You must note that this is strictly an event for dogs, which means you cannot sneak in your cats or bunnies. Not to mention, this fiesta will feature live music, workshops, activities, market stalls, food trucks dishing out food for both humans and pets, puppy pilates, and more. Doesn’t it all sound amazing?
Moreover, all these workshops and entertainment will be included in the ticket price. In fact, the best part about this is that the entry for your furballs is absolutely free! However, tickets are priced at AED50 per hooman and if you have kids aged under 12 years, then they can enter the arena for free as well. In fact, there’s a special Off-leash area where your doggos can run freely and make new friends!
You Can Win A Six-Month Supply Of Pet Food
Besides all this, you can also stand a chance to win a six-month supply of pet food from Purina Pro Plus, the festival’s partner. Additionally, every visitor also gets to take home a goody bag! However, it’s worth noting that every dog will be assessed for sociability by dog behaviourists at the entry. On the basis of this assessment, they will be provided with colour-coded leashes. Geen means they’re highly social, Yellow signals they’re an introvert, and Red means they’re safe but nervous.
