The best dog events in Derby
48
Woofstock
Each year, 10,000 people from the Wichita area get together for the largest fundraising event for the Kansas Humane Society! You and your pooch won’t want to miss out on a day of shopping at doggy vendor booths, participating in the silent auction, or joining in on one of the many activities at the event.
At the event, you can help raise money for the Kansas Humane Society. The more you raise, the bigger the prize you will receive!
Woofstock will be held on a day in October from 9:30 am to 3 pm at Sedgwick County Park. General admission is just $10 per person.

Pooch Pool Party
Rock River Rapids Aquatic Park in Derby hosts a Pooch Pool Party each year to mark the end of the summer swimming. Dogs flood the pool for the last swim of the season, and to keep the pooches safe, the chemicals in the pool have been adjusted for a furrier member of your family.
During this fun swimming event, you can win door prizes, as well as prizes in a number of categories including Cutest Dog, Smallest Dog, Best Dressed Dog, and Biggest Dog!
While the water park is generally geared toward children, during the Pooch Pool Party, Rock River Rapids won’t allow anyone under the age of 16 to get in the water, and even adults are only allowed to swim up to their thighs.
Each owner is allowed two dogs and admission is $5 per dog.

Bring your dog, and make sure they are in their best costume! During the costume contests, your dog could win prizes for their great outfits. The party will feature some paw-some activities and opportunities for socialization! Local food trucks will provide food and there will be live music.
