Hound-O-Ween Pet Costume Contest and Fall Festival Coming to Northern Liberties
Philadelphia’s largest Halloween pet costume contest is back – and cuter than ever! The 8th Annual Hound-O-Ween Fall Festival and Pet Costume Contest will take over the 700 Block of N. 2nd Street, on Saturday, October 29th, from 12:00pm to 5:00pm.
Dozens of furry contestants will compete for prizes in various categories, plus try to win best of show.
Registration for this annual benefit is only a $30 (or $20 extra per additional) donation per pet. There is a $500 cash grand prize to the winning pet courtesy of Wilson’s Estate Jewelry. All proceeds benefit Street Tails Animal Rescue in their mission to help homeless and unwanted animals in the Philadelphia area.
On top of the costume contest, look for outdoor fall tunes, Halloween vibes, vendors, music, charity auction, raffle prizes and more. Outdoor food and beverage will be for sale by El Camino Real.
Vendors, pet caricatures and a pet photo booth will round out the family fun for all ages. Other vendors will include Wag Watch, Dog Dayzzz Daycare, Piggyback Treats, Saint Rocco’s Treats, Quirky Kin, Two Cats and a Dog, Bucks Dog Training, Shelby’s Squad, and more.
While taking part or enjoying the competition, make sure to shop the vendors and take in the spooky season vibes, plus don’t forget to enter to win great prizes in the Street Tails auction, with prizes donated by Federal Donuts, Philadelphia Rock Gyms, Philadelphia Barber Co., El Camino Real, O’Neals Pub, Philadelphia Magic Gardens, Monster Energy, a chance to win a two night stay at a classic Adirondack chalet, and more!
