CancerCare is set to welcome dog lovers to Abbot Hall Park on 31st August 2024 for the first-ever Woof & Wag event.

CancerCare’s Woof & Wag will make use of the glorious setting of Abbot Hall Park in central Kendal to host a doggy-themed day out for the whole family, with dog, puppy or pack invited, too!

Running from 11am to 4pm, Woof & Wag promises to be an action-packed afternoon with a host of activities, including dog-themed games and more. The featured event will be the dog show, which will run categories for pooches of all shapes, sizes and breeds. There will be classes and prizes for the best trick, the waggiest tail and the overall best in show among others. There will be a host of local shops and stalls, too, selling dog treats, toys and other essentials.

The event is held in partnership with TryBooking, a Kendal-based online event ticketing platform. TryBooking sell tickets online and are totally free for free events. CancerCare has worked alongside TryBooking for several years and we are thrilled to be collaborating on the Woof & Wag.

The event is free to attend, with a £2 entry per dog per show class.

The café and facilities at the adjacent Abbot Hall art gallery will be available to use on the day.
