Events Description
Shout it from the woof tops – we’re bringing back autumn’s most adorable paw-rty, Howl’oween! With support from Ren’s Pets, The Bentway once again invites all pup-kins and their families to participate in a fun, festive, dog-focused day! Take part in the Costumed Pup Parade and contest, complete with celebrity judges (look out for your favourite Drag Pug, Miss Pickles!). Comedian and TV personality Spencer Litzinger is our host for the day. We’ll also have themed music, a gourd-geous photo station, cozy drinks, and bark-tacular local vendors.
Get creative and dress to impress for the competition! Prizes will be awarded to dogs with the Most Fall-Festive, Best DIY, and Most Original costumes, as well as the overall Judge’s Favourite.
There will also be a Best Group Costume awarded to one lucky family, giving you the chance to arrive in style too! Bring your best tricks and treats and prepare for a tail-riffic afternoon of Halloween family fun at The Bentway.
Please arrive by 12:30pm if you’d like to participate in the parade and costume contest.
