Get ready for a pawsome day in Braddon as the City Renewal Authority's monthly Paws Party lines up with the return of the Braddon Busking Festival this Sunday, 30 March. Expect a day filled with great live music, adorable dogs, and loads of fun.
Canberrans are invited to bring their furry family members to Haig Park for the Dogtor’s Day Paws Party. The event will feature general advice from a vet, dog treats, and a photobooth to capture memorable moments with your pets.
A dog-loving, qualified vet will be available to answer your questions about pet wellbeing. Receive advice on diet, exercise, training, behaviour, and socialisation to ensure your pet's health and happiness.
Dogs are natural connectors, helping people strike up conversations and form new friendships. This social interaction is key in the revitalisation of Haig Park, transforming it into a welcoming community hub that fosters a sense of belonging and wellbeing among Canberrans.
The Braddon Busking Festival is back! Hosted by the Braddon Collective and supported by the City Renewal Authority's Placemaking Grants program, the event promises a delightful showcase of local talent.
“We’re excited to bring the Busking Festival back to the streets of Braddon”, Susan Davidson from the Braddon Collective said.
The Busking Festival will be joined by the inaugural Artist Gathering, featuring talented artists from the Canberra region and beyond.
“Local musicians, performers and artists will have the opportunity to showcase their talents in an open platform, bringing the streets of Braddon to life with creativity and music.”
