Jo’s 18th Annual Pet Parade & Costume Contest

This is the place for dogs in drag. Our annual Pet Parade is beloved by all who have ever come across it – it’s hard not to love animals in outfits. Liz Lambert created the annual Pet Parade to honor the life of her late brother and best friend Lyndon, who was a pet lover and founder of San Francisco pet store George.

We parade down South Congress with a marching band and outfitted pets in tow, and arrive in the parking lot for a pet costume competition. Then we hang out for a few hours to eat, drink, and ogle a lot of great looking animals while a band or two plays. All proceeds from the entry fees benefit Austin Pets Alive!
Pets are welcome to march with their humans free of registration! Registration is for the costume contest only!
