Swanage Folk Festival

DOGS

Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome on the Sandpit Field. Please do not let your dog run free.

Water is available at the tap opposite the end of Rabling Road and a bowl by the main marquee.

Please clean up after your dog and dispose of waste in the dedicated bin near the entrance to the field.

Dogs are allowed into the marquee during concerts, but you will be asked to remove the dog if it disturbs the concert, or causes problems due to lack of space. It is not fair on your dog to be squashed or trampled in crowded conditions. Also remember that some bands have loud drums that may cause distress to your dog. Amplified music can be painful on sensitive hearing.

Admittance of dogs to other premises is subject to indiviual restrictions. Most pubs allow dogs in their gardens on leads.

Assistance dogs are always welcome.

Please do not leave your dog in your car if there is any chance of  sunshine during the day affecting the vehicle. Remember the sun moves!

There are restrictions applying to dogs on the beach. Please check the notices along the sea front.

We hope you enjoy the festival with your dogs.
