This dog-friendly section of Markham Village Music Festival is a returning favourite to the festival. Drawing in thousands last year with over 25 vendors, this year we are doubling the size, and are aiming to be York Region’s largest dog-friendly festival. Extending the festival from St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church to Bullock Drive, we will have more than double the dog-related businesses, iconic photo opportunities, DJ, entertainment and more.
