For this particular event, we discourage dogs from coming. However, we completely understand that people travel with their dogs and want them to be a part of their holiday.
Before considering bringing your four-legged friend, please ask yourself the following questions and review the rules below.
- How will your dog cope? (Loud music, crowds, rowdy people, litter, being left)
- Do they have good manners and won’t jump up on people or steal their snacks?
- Are they well-behaved around other dogs?
- Has your dog camped before?
If you do decide to bring your dog, please ensure the following:
- On a short lead at all times
- Clean up after them (ensure you bring and keep plenty of poo bags handy)
- Collar with a name tag and contact details
- Keep an eye on them at all times (don’t let them eat anything they find on the ground)
- Strictly no access to the fenced event area (unless they are authorised assistance dogs)
All of these things are important factors to ensure you, your pup, and everyone else at the event have a good time!
