Plans are coming together at Goodwoof HQ as we head towards another exciting celebration of all that we love about dogs over the weekend of 17 and 18 May.
And this year, it’s even bigger and better than ever with lots of new places for you and your four-legged friends to explore and enjoy. A brand-new area, The Green, will be the new home of the ever-popular Fastest Dog, presented by DHL, giving dogs more shade and a quieter spot in which to prepare for their race against the clock. The Green, which will be found alongside that oasis of calm, the Woodland Walk, will also house a whole new range of shopping and eating opportunities, perfect for those moments when your dog needs a breather.
Due to popular demand, we will also be thrilled to unveil our Grooming Parlour where dogs can enjoy a one-to-one consultation with one of our expert groomers from the incredible team at Chelsea’s Love My Human Townhouse. They will assess your dog’s coat and give you advice on how best to care for it in their grooming talks and demonstrations. They will also show you how to correctly brush your hound’s teeth to keep them in top condition, before giving your hound a quick spruce up and pamper.

If you’re looking for a pit stop for your children – or you’re feeling crafty yourself – our brand-new Art Café, right alongside Literary Corner, is the perfect place for you to sit down and indulge in some mindful crafting pursuits whilst your dog has a snooze under the table. This year’s stellar line up taking part in Literary Corner will be announced very soon.
Adding to the Woodland Walk line up this year is our Dog Astrologer. We know that you and your dog are the best of friends, but how compatible are your star signs and what can you do to ensure perfect harmony between human and hound? Also along the way on the Woodland Walk, you will be able to take a breather with your dog in our new Quiet Zone – the perfect shady spot in which to enjoy a moment of calm and relaxation.
Across the whole Goodwoof site, you’ll find even more chances to browse the best dog and lifestyle brands of our retailers, as well as choose from an even greater selection of delicious food and drink outlets to keep you fed and watered throughout the day.
Don’t forget to get to Goodwoof early to see an amazing parade of our celebrated breed, the mighty Dachshund as they open the event by following the band from Goodwood House down to the giant orange hounds at the entrance to all the Goodwoof fun.
Goodwood House itself is also the place to book yourself in for a Tea and Tour - afternoon tea, treats for your dog and the chance to nourish both body and soul amidst the superb art collection which you’ll learn all about from our super-knowledgeable guides.
You won’t want to miss all the old favourite Goodwoof surprises as well as being the first to sniff out all the new and exciting experiences this year.
