Dogtoberfest

October 13 @ 8:00 am - 6:30 pm

$15 – $35
A blue sign with white and yellow text announces "South Coast Botanic Garden Dogtoberfest." The event features a dog paw print and wheat sprigs as decorative elements. The pet festival takes place every weekend in October.

It’s beer festival meets dog parade at South Coast Botanic Garden’s Dogtoberfest! Both humans and dogs alike are invited to join the festivities offered every Saturday and Sunday in October. Enjoy a gorgeous walk in the Garden with your pup while you taste a variety of beers, take a spin and dance with your pooch, shop at a doggy marketplace and let your pup show what it’s got on an obstacle course! Dottie’s at the Koi Pond will be serving up Bratwursts, warm soft pretzels and other Bavarian favorites. And, don’t forget to pick up a “barkuterie box” for your furry friends!

Things To Do During Dogtoberfest

Biscuits and Beers 
Pawrade your pooch around for a unique pup crawl where you can visit up to 4 stations located throughout the Garden and enjoy FREE beer samplings. Once you have found your favorite, purchase a full-sized beverage from a selection of 8 different beers, including a limited run Dogtoberfest Lager from Smog City Brewing Company. Every purchase will be paired with a complimentary dog treat for our four-legged friends to enjoy.

Doggy Marketplace
We double dog dare you to resist the wares of our pooch-centered craftsmen. From specialty dog collars to colorful dishes, you will not go home empty-pawed.

Dance Pawty
Our dog-themed music will get toes tapping and tails wagging with a lush green backdrop of the garden.

360 degree Pet Portraits
Fetch a memory with Fido by taking a special video portrait in the Garden. (For VIP ticketholders only)

Obstacle Course 
Let your pup show us what it can do on our doggy obstacle course! Remember, dogs must remain on leash at all times.
