Lights! Camera! Action! Darling, it’s time for the dogs to shine!
The Central Coast’s most fun and flamboyant dog show is back! The Puparazzi Pooch Parade is one of the highlights of Coastal Twist Festival’s Coastie Carnie Fair Day in Umina Beach, and we’re calling all fabulous four-legged friends& their pawents to join in the fun.
This isn’t your typical dog show—this is all about attitude. Whether you’ve got a stylish pedigree, a mutt with sass, or a completely unique furball, it’s time to bring them to the spotlight. The Puparazzi Pooch Parade kicks off Sunday, October 6th, at 10:45am, as part of the free, all-ages Coastal Twist Fair Day. With over 9,000 attendees expected, your pup could become the next local celebrity!
The dog show will feature 45 minutes of furry fashion and fun, hosted on the main stage by the iconic, award-winning First Nations drag queen Timberlina, known for dazzling crowds with her larger-than-life presence and signature style.
The categories are packed with flair and fun: #DogsDoingDrag celebrates the most stylish, gender-bending pooches, while #WhoWoreItBetter puts owners and dogs in a look-alike showdown. Show off your dog’s talent in #TurningTricks and let them shake their tails in #HottestTwerker to see who’s got the best moves!
Amazing prizes are up for grabs, including a $2000 event package from Ocean Beach Surf Life Saving Club, a $350 tattoo and merch pack from Ocean Beach Tattoo, and vouchers from Puppylicious Dog Washing, Margarita Daze, Beau’s Burgers, and more. Plus, expect goody bags from Paws on the Coast and handmade goodies from Tinker & Co.
So, grab your best-dressed pooch and join the fun at this year’s Puparazzi Pooch Parade! It’s a celebration of dogs, community, and creativity—don’t miss out! Get ready to strut, wag, and win!
