DogFest Returns to Harewood House for 2025: A Must-Visit for Dog Lovers

Dog lovers in Yorkshire are in for a treat as DogFest returns to Harewood House on 13 and 14 September 2025. The UK’s favourite dog-friendly festival promises a weekend packed with activities, expert advice, and plenty of fun for both dogs and their owners.

Since launching in 2014, DogFest has become a must-attend event, drawing over 150,000 visitors each year. It’s all about celebrating the special bond between dogs and their humans, with a mix of entertainment, hands-on experiences, and expert-led talks. From live music and great food to exciting dog displays and shopping, there’s something for everyone.

Dogs can take part in flyball, scent work, and the much-loved Fun Dog Show. New for 2025 is the Live Stage, packed with engaging talks and demonstrations, plus performances from Boom Circus, a roaming troupe bringing acrobatics and comedy to keep visitors entertained throughout the day.

This year, DogFest is making things simple with a fair ticket pricing structure—no last-minute discounts, just one great price all year round. Standard daily tickets are £17.50, including free parking, and kids under 11 and dogs go free, making it a brilliant value day out.

There are also extra perks like early activity bookings, an exhibitor discount booklet, and free human and dog ice cream.

DogFest has also teamed up with Agria Pet Insurance in a new five-year headline partnership. Agria has been supporting pet owners since 1890 and brings its expertise to the festival, helping visitors learn more about keeping their dogs happy and healthy.

With seven stunning locations across the UK, including Knebworth House, Tatton Park, and Blenheim Palace, DogFest is set to be bigger and better than ever. Yorkshire’s dog lovers can look forward to their local event at Harewood House in September.
