About the event
Northern Virginia's biggest and best fall festival for animal lovers is Sunday, October 11!
Paws in the Park runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Oronoco Bay Park in Old Town Alexandria. This annual event celebrates our community's love for animals and offers attendees a one-of-a-kind family and pet-friendly FREE festival featuring vendors, adoptable animals, and a variety of entertainment.
Along with many local artisans, nonprofits, and animal-focused businesses, Paws in the Park will host food and beverage vendors, too. Attendees can pack a picnic and also savor food and drinks from local cideries, breweries, wineries, bakeries, and food trucks while enjoying the day’s entertainment and shopping.
We are setting up our famous beer garden featuring four of our award-winning craft beers, local cider from Lost Boy, and two different styles of wine!
