Geelong Dog Lovers Market
Hi folks! I run and organise the Geelong Dog Lovers Market. I originally started hosting mini dog markets outside of my shop on Pakington Street in 2021. The markets grew very quickly, and now they are held at Little Creatures Brewery in Geelong! Geelong Dog Lovers Market started in February 2022 at Little Creatures, and runs every 2 months. There's nothing else like it in our region! It's a very successful local event with 20-40 market stalls made up of small businesses, all focused on pet related products and services. Crowds are large and consistent, it's a very popular event with entry being free! Little Creatures Brewery is a fantastic venue with a big outdoor dog-friendly dining area, great food menu and of course plenty of the breweries famous beers. You can find us on Instagram and Facebook under Geelong Dog Lovers Market
