Mardi Gras Dog Parade
What kind of Louisiana city would Lafayette be if it did not have a Mardi Gras Pet Parade?Organized by Krewe de Chiens, the Mardi Gras Pet Parade takes place each February with an open invitation for all to participate. Registration costs $20, and participants are automatically registered as members of the Krewe de Chiens. There are options to pay for a spot on a float or even a float of your own depending on how royal you and Fido are feeling. The themes for the parade change annually, and even if you are not walking, it is a sight you do not want to miss!36
Bark in the Park
The largest fundraising event of the season for Acadiana Animal Aid, Bark in the Park is an annual community festival at Moncus Park for the entire family to enjoy! Dogs, of course, are welcome to come along and enjoy the games and vendors present catering solely towards pets. For humans, this event will feature food, games, live demonstrations, and a dunk tank! In partnership with dozens of local organizations, businesses, and service providers, Bark in the Park creates a day of fun for pet owners in Lafayette all while supporting a great cause.24
Barktoberfest
Barkopolis and The Wurst Biergarten have joined forces to put on one heck of an event: Barktoberfest! This event will be providing guests with an off-leash, fenced area, so humans can stop in for a beverage and a classic German snack while the pups are at play. There will be drink and food specials going on all day, with several pet-friendly vendors offering information on community services like microchipping or low-cost spay and neutering. This event is free of charge, and dogs must be properly vaccinated in order to attend.12
Camp Bow Wow 5K
Hosted by its namesake, the annual Camp Bow Wow 5K Fun Run brings dogs and humans of all ages to the River Town Ranch Square to kick off the race! The race will be broken down into several categories for both dogs (size) and their handlers (age) to compete for prizes. For those not wanting to run the full 5K, there is a 1-mile course available. When racers cross the finish line, they are encouraged to enjoy the vendors, food trucks, live music, and dog-friendly activities available. Registration cost is $40 unless you are just looking to do the one-mile course.
Dog Crawl
The Downtown Dog Crawl indulges the inner voice we hear inside whenever we are out at the bars that whispers, “Man, I wish my dog was here.” Organized by Camp Bow Wow in partnership with Social Entertainment, this bar crawl is crawling with activities and drink specials for all participants and their beloved animals. There will be scavenger hunts, games, and prizes that take you from the starting point, Dat Dog, to four more bars along the way! Due to this event’s popularity, there is a limit to 100 people allowed, so buy tickets as soon as you can for just under $30 after processing fees!
