Relax And Have Fun With Your Pup At Barks & Brews 2023!

Calling all dog & beer lovers! Join us on Saturday, March 18th, for Barks & Brews Fest and help us raise money for The Barking Lot Rescue!

Featuring a day filled with craft beer tastings, great food, furry friends and the vibrant surroundings of the San Diego Bay, this event will be at the amazing Waterfront Park in downtown San Diego and will feature lots of unique elements. Dog contests include most talented and best dressed in St. Patrick’s theme.

Beer, food, music, and dogs running free!

Barks & Brews 2023 will feature a variety of local vendors, breweries and some of San Diego’s best eats. Dogs can run free in separate designated unleashed areas, compete in one of our pet friendly contests, relax in one of our lounges, or experience one of the unique activations. Enjoy the day with your friends while eating awesome food, sipping on a tasty beverage, or shopping local boutique vendors. Soak up the sunshine while listening to tunes by local artists all day long with bayside views.

A portion of every Barks & Brews festival benefits The Barking Lot

The Barking Lot is a 501c3 non-profit dog rescue organization in San Diego dedicated to dog adoption and finding foster homes for dogs in need. They rescue our furry friends from area shelters, humane societies and Mexico as they are at risk of being euthanized and/or abandoned and find them amazing forever homes perfectly suited to their needs for many yappy endings!

For more info on The Barking Lot, visit the website here.
