Four-legged friends and their owners are invited to join A Doggy Day Out in celebrating the summer with its highly-anticipated festival, The Big Bark, when it heads to Gloucestershire for the first time.
Taking place at Cirencester Park on The Bathurst Estate on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 August 2025 from 10am to 5pm, the dog-focused weekend features an exciting host of activities organised for pooches and their owners.
Dogs can try their paw at fur-bulous activities in the Have-a-Go show ring such as agility, hoopers, flyball, scurry and more, as well as training sessions; let boundless energy run wild in the Puppy Zone; and explore a selection of pet-friendly stalls with everything from tasty treats to snazzy accessories.
Plus, attendees will be supporting the fantastic work that the National Foundation for Retired Service Animals (NFRSA) and Cheltenham Animal Shelter do, helping dogs in need.
After all the fun, relax at the grassy picnic areas, refuel with delicious street food and refreshments — and don't miss Wags Cafe for puppuccinos, too!
Two types of tickets are available for furry friends: the 'Pawtime Adventure Ticket', which is valid for up to two dogs and offers the ultimate immersive experience for your pooch, including a range of activities.
And the 'Puppies Adventure Ticket' which is valid for one dog, offering your pup access to the play area and the chance to explore the fun of the Big Wags world. Expect sensory play, a washing line scent find, puppy lucky dip and a puppy trainer — and perhaps they'll learn their first trick!
