Carseldine Markets Gears Up for 8th Annual Barktoberfest

Dog lovers and their furry companions are in for a treat as the 8th Annual Barktoberfest prepares to take over Carseldine Markets.



This free-entry event will occur on Saturday, 12 October, from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. It promises a day brimming with canine-centric activities, competitions, and a vibrant market atmosphere.

Paw-some Competitions and Activities

This year’s Barktoberfest is set to be a standout, with the highly-anticipated Pawparazzi Competition offering five categories for pups to strike their best poses. The Strike, a Paws Fashion Parade, will see stylish dogs strutting their stuff, while the brand-new Pawesome Performer Competition will showcase talented canines and their tricks.

The Animal Welfare League Queensland will also be on hand, providing a Puppy Hydration Station and engaging activities to keep tails wagging and pups refreshed throughout the day.

A Market for Everyone

Beyond the dog-themed festivities, Barktoberfest will showcase a diverse range of vendors. Visitors can explore unique handmade treats, artisan crafts, and farm-fresh produce from over 150 stalls. Specialty businesses catering to canine needs will also be present, alongside dog behaviour and obedience trainers like One With The Dog.



Entry and parking are free, making the event accessible to all. Follow the Barktoberfest 2024 Facebook Event for the latest updates on competitions and giveaways. Register for free tickets and the chance to win a Barktoberfest Hamper.
