Our pug Bertie was very special to us and he completely inspired and shaped our events. To honour him, we'll be donating the ticket revenue from this event to the PDWRA - an amazing charity that helps many, many pugs in need.

You'll also be able to buy some of our very last remaining copies of Bertie's book Happy Dog Days at the Pug Cafe that have been signed by him - with all money donated to charity.  Halloween holds a special place in our hearts as it was the day we launched our book so we plan on bringing you our best Halloween event yet - full of sass and pug-love.

So whether your dog is Mummy's little Pumpkin, a Moaning Myrtle or a little Beastling in disguise, you must bring them to the event of the year. There'll be a whole Grumble of Pugs, Creepin' it real...

Expect our most EXTRA Halloween party with even more decorations, Pumpkin Patches, spooky corners and tricks 'n' treats than ever.

If your Pug loves attention and treats then this will be their Best Day Ever - the chance to show off their Halloween costume, playtime with fellow Pugs, lots of treats and heaps of fuss from the pug-loving humans.

Our breed-specific events are known to be the perfect way to socialise whether you've got an excitable puppy on your hands or an older pet that deserves a super-special day out, its a lovely place to meet like-minded people.

The famous Pop + Bark mobile Pupuccino Bar will be in the house serving up Pupuccinos with a host of Halloween-themed toppings like Skeleton Dust, Blueberry Eyeballs and Bloody Pupcorn. It's THE coolest experience for any dog and the world's only mobile Pupuccino Bar.

Plus, Rudi's The Doggy Bakery will be selling Limited Edition freshly-baked Halloween Pupcakes, Dognuts, Dog-friendly Cookies and more.

We all know dogs own Halloween so go all out with their costume (and yours!) and you could win an awesome prize.

Our events are incredibly welcoming so you don’t need to own your own Pug to come and enjoy this really special one-off event. Come, enjoy people with some adorable Pugs and get to know the breed.

Like us, you may have recently lost your own little pug, and would love to come spend some time with some lovely pugs. 

We're also fully inclusive and family-friendly, too. If you can't have a dog at home but your kids love them then this is a wonderful experience they'll be raving about for years to come! We have had so many little guests come to our events and they tell us it's the happiest day of their life.

The Refinery Bankside is a beautiful, big venue with a large open area for dogs to play. There are also hidden, quieter areas where you can enjoy the event at a calmer pace. Being indoors, our event is totally weather-proof.

They've got the humans covered and will be serving their seasonal Halloween cocktails, brunch, lunch and dinner dishes and everything in between.
