DUFTS - The Inaugural Dulwich Hamlet Dog Show

DUFTS - The Inaugural Dulwich Hamlet Dog Show

Gen Williams on 1st May 2026

The eagle-eyed and beer-minded will already know about the 3rd annual CAMRA Beer Festival, taking place at Champion Hill on Saturday 23 May.

Now there's an additional reason to get yourself along to the festival and enjoy some well-selected beers - the Dulwich Hamlet Supporters' Trust will also be hosting DUFTS: The Inaugural Dulwich Hamlet Dog Show as part of the afternoon.

If you have a dog (or several), we want to see you there!

The details:

1pm, Saturday 23 May
£4 per dog to enter

Your canine pal could win Best in Show, or one of thirteen other awards:

  • Best Smile
  • Best Costume
  • Best Trick
  • Tiniest Dog
  • Biggest Dog
  • Friendliest Dog
  • Waggiest Tail
  • Floofiest Friend
  • Most Chaotic Dog
  • Grumpiest Dog
  • Dog/Owner Doppelgänger Award
  • Player of the Match (football skills)
  • The People’s Pooch (audience vote)

Our friends at The Dandy Hound in Peckham Rye are kindly offering a free bath and tidy groom for the dog that wins Best in Show!

We're donating profits from the event to Care Dogs, a south-London based befriending charity that combats loneliness by linking up isolated older people with dogs and their owners, for walks and companionship.

Dogs of all sizes and persuasions are welcome - and yours could be the star of the show! Bring your furry friend to help us make the first show a success. 'How many dogs?' As many as possible!

Dogs! Craft beer! The admiration of your friends, family and peers! (For your dog, at least.) And a fine local cause to support.
