Description

The 9th Annual Pride in London Pup Walk, Sightseeing Tour and London Pup Party!

Saturday 6th July 2019


FREE TICKETS FOR THE PUP SIGHTSEEING TOUR ARE NOW AVAILABLE


DO NOT BOOK TICKETS WITH MULTIPLE WALKING GROUPS AS YOU WILL STOP SOMEBODY ELSE FROM WALKING

2019 will be the 9th consecutive year that we've organised for pups to walk at Pride in London, and we hope to see you again this year!

There will also be another awesome free goodie bag for everyone who walks with us!

Whether you want to walk with us or another group: you can get changed, store bags and eat brunch / dinner at The Pup Pride Party!

Following the success of last year, The Pup Pride Party returns to Draft House Chancery (a short walk from the Pride in London Parade) and booked exclusively for the pups from 9am to midnight!

The venue will have a safe space to get changed, store your bags and enjoy brunch / dinner buffets (so you can eat before and after the parade), and plenty of room to relax or catch up with people at the end of the day. There are also tasty drinks, and an outside smoking area!

Pup Sightseeing Tour

Missed out on tickets to walk in the parade? You can still join the Pup Sightseeing Tour!

If you missed a place in the parade, or just want an easier walk, Pup Out London is organising a Sightseeing Tour of London!

This will be a FREE walk by London's landmarks to see the sights and interact with the public.

Details are still being confirmed, but it will start at the same time as the Parade Pup Walk, and should finish slightly earlier. The Sightseeing Tour will be an extended version of Pup Out London's monthly walks, with plenty of fun along the way.

People on the Sightseeing Tour will also be offered places in the parade, if some become available on the day.

There are 75 places on the Sightseeing Tour, with everybody getting one of the fantastic goodie bags (water, treats and goodies from sponsors). Book your FREE place today!

Don’t forget that you can still attend the Pup Pride Party to meet your friends in the morning / evening, and have a place to get changed, store bags, and eat at the massive buffet!

Parade Pup Walk

The parade will start at Great Portland Street and will finish at Whitehall. This is around 2.5 miles, exact timings will be announced nearer the time.

Walking with us in the Pride in London is free for all attendees, as it has for the past 8 years that we've run the walk.  We do pay for group registration and organisation so donations are welcome.

Please don't book walking wristbands from multiple groups as you will prevent someone else from walking.

Timings

Please remember to wait at the end for the group photo!

Goodie Bags

If you're joining the Pup Sightseeing Tour, or the Parade Pup Walk, you'll receive one of our goodie bags (filled with help from our awesome friends). So far, each goodie bag will contain:

  • 3 x 500ml bottles of water
  • Rehydration tablets
  • A selection of edible treats
  • Puppy Pride 2019 Wristband
  • Collectible gift from Puppy Pride
  • Collectible enamel pin from Pup Out London

Plus gifts from these awesome sponsors:
