Frankston's furry favourites to get together once again
Published on 05 June 2025
Frankston City Council’s newest pet-friendly event – The Great Pet-Together – is making its debut in October this year.
Celebrating the beloved animals in our lives, from the furry and purry, to the feathery and nibbly, The Great Pet-Together is designed to be a fun-filled day for the whole family – especially pets!
Frankston City Councillor Michael O’Reilly said he was thrilled to see this long-awaited event come to fruition.
“Our community have missed Frankston’s previously held pet event from 2023. With so many pet lovers across the city, it was only right to bring it back again for everyone to enjoy,” he said.
As one of Victoria’s most pet-friendly municipalities, Frankston boasts approximately 37,000 registered cats and dogs – around 70% of which are dogs. The city features more than 30 designated off-leash areas, including five fully fenced dog parks and an off-leash beach area in Seaford.
While the program for The Great Pet-Together is still being finalised, visitors can expect:
- Pet-related displays and exhibitions
- Engaging activities for pets and people
- Free entertainment and interactive experiences
- Plenty of paws-itively fun for all ages
The Great Pet-Together will take place on Sunday 12 October 2025, from 10am to 2pm at Ballam Park. Entry is free.
