The biggest ever New Forest Frenchie meet-up
The entire focus of the day is for Frenchies to meet each other and have lots of fun with their fellow breed. As humans, you can also meet fellow Frenchie enthusiasts, share stories about your furry friends, and make new connections in the vibrant New Forest Frenchie community. But more importantly, take part in the biggest French Bulldog meet-up the New Forest has ever seen… it will blow your dog’s mind!
Free puppuccino for every dog
Upon arrival your Frenchie will be given a puppuccino made from dog-friendly whipped cream with a small treat on top.
Dog assault course
It’s not just about Frenchies socialising with each other. There’s lots to keep them occupied too. For example, the assault course – do you think your Frenchie has what it takes to conquer different obstacles? Put their skills to the test on our specially designed course featuring tunnels, jumps, and weave poles. It’s a thrilling challenge that’s sure to get their bottoms waggling.
Expert speakers on training and behaviour with a live training show
We also have canine experts from The Family Dog Club on hand to help you understand and care for your French Bulldog during our educational workshops. To see the schedule of sessions, please click here.
Frenchie photo booth
And why not capture a precious moment with your furry friend at our photo booth. Strike a pose, snap a selfie, and take home a memento of your unforgettable day at the inaugural Frenchie Fest meet-up.
Lot of room on the fields for play
Exbury Club has extensive fields upon which you can walk your Frenchie, and perhaps if your dog needs some time out, you can go a little further out from the main meet-up area to stretch their legs or give them a break from all of the excitement.
Vendor stalls & Frenchie merchandise
We’ve partnered with various vendors who will have items and services relating to Frenchie care. There will also be a stall selling Frenchie merchandise. To see the full list of vendors, please scroll down.
We don’t want humans to go hungry… indulge in delicious BBQ, snacks, and refreshing beverages.
Licensed bar and food for humans
Exbury Club will be doing food and drink. This includes their licensed bar if you fancy a tipple, which you can bring outdoors too, and relax on the benches with cold drink. We will also have an ice cream cabin!
BBQ for humans from 12 till 2pm
Exbury Club will also be running a BBQ which runs over the lunchtime period.
