Good to know
Written by AI from the event details · Updated 1 second ago

Dogs Bar is a St Kilda stalwart, known for its laid-back crowd and welcoming attitude to both people and pooches. The crawl winds through the heart of Acland Street and surrounds, giving you a genuine taste of the area's dog-friendly hospitality and the easygoing social scene that draws so many to St Kilda weekends. Expect plenty of laughs, sandy paws, and the kind of spontaneous chats that always happen when dogs are involved. This one's perfect for anyone who enjoys a walk, a drink, and the company of good dogs and easygoing owners. It's especially popular with locals who want a social outing that's genuinely inclusive of their pets. Unlike other pet events, this crawl ends at the off-lead beach, so pups can finish the day with a splash in the bay.

Insider tip
Bring a lead for the walking sections and a towel for sandy paws at the beach.
Insider tip
The crawl is mostly outdoors, so dress for Melbourne's changeable weather.
