A community market day dedicated to raising funds for rescue organisations, bringing together 8 rescue groups, 7 dog-loving small businesses, a coffee van, and Melbourne's most passionate animal-loving community for an afternoon of shopping. Thanks to Gold Sponsor Pug Parties covering all overheads, 100% of event proceeds go directly to the rescues. The event features Meet & Greet Stalls where rescue dogs can be brought for public interaction, and Merchandise/Awareness Stalls. Fully undercover and weatherproof.
Dog rules
Only meet & greet rescue stalls may bring dogs. All dogs on short lead, under control at all times. Dogs must be settled and on lead before the venue opens. No dogs should be unsettled or stressed at open time.
