Paw Fest at the Lakefront September 20
There’s a brand-new pet event coming to Henry Maier Festival Park this year- from the organization behind Doggy Day – Winston’s Wishes is excited to announce a brand-new celebration of pets, people and paws – Paw Fest at the Lakefront presented by Yutka Fence on Saturday, September 20, 2025, from 10am – 3pm.
This FREE, pet-friendly fest is all about wagging tails, tasty treats, and good fun. Well-socialized, leashed dogs are invited to bring their humans (and vice versa!) for a full day of pet-centered play, shopping, music, and more.
Paw Fest at the Lakefront will feature the following:
- Delicious drinks, including tons of fun from the wonderful Tito’s Handmade Vodka, the Vodka For Dog People
- Delicious eats from local food trucks and restaurants, such as Romero’s Taco Truck, Tots on the Street, and Dog Gone Great (for your pup!)
- Music & Entertainment provided by DJ Gee-A
- Activities for doggy friends:
- Lure Course presented by Central Bark
- The enrichment zone with wonderful force free trainers, and more to be announced
Your pup will be barking about this event the rest of the year!
Paw Fest at the Lakefront is produced by Winston’s Wishes, a volunteer-run, nonprofit organization that focuses on supporting dogs who aren’t doing well in the busy shelter environment, senior dogs or dogs who need extra medical care. As a proud MADACC transfer partner, Winston’s Wishes is focused on helping local Milwaukee pups find their happily ever afters.
