Pawfest Dogs in Yellow Hour
EXPLORE MOREallows dogs and their owners to leisurely browse our Shopping Village, participate in our Try-me activities, and seek advice from professionals—all in a quiter, calmer, stress-free environment away from the crowds.

Exclusive to our Pawfest event we have a dedicated Dogs in Yellow Entrance which provides a quieter, calmer entry. Each dog will receive a Pet Remedy calming wipe, while owners will have a calming spray applied to their trousers. This ensures that the soothing effects begin immediately, helping to ease anxiety for both the dogs & their owners right from the start!
.
Plus we still want your furry friend to be able to step into the spotlight and showcase their charm, so we added a special category in our Fun Dog Show - Yellow Pup Parade 🎗️ This category is held during the Dogs in Yellow Hour allowing your Dog to participate in our delightful competition, but without the stress of large crowds or loads of other dogs!
