About Woofstock UK

Woofstock UK is a family-friendly event like no other, a festival for all things dog. Our first ever festival, back in 2014, was hailed as a great success and we are expecting our 9th event in 2025 to carry on the momentum built up over time. With over 20,000 followers across the Woofstock UK social media platforms, we are expecting a bumper turnout again in June 2026. Set in the grounds of the magnificent Powderham Castle near Exeter, the location is spectacular and easy to find, with ample free parking on site.

We Support Charities

We are proud to be supporting the following charities at Woofstock UK 2026 by helping to raise awareness about the work they do. This year’s charities include those helping animals internationally, in cities and in our own corner of the south west.

The National Foundation for Retired Service Animals

Police dogs receive a one off payment from the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner when they retire, but this does not last long. The NFRSA supports retired dogs and horses from the police, fire, prison and border force services by helping with medical and veterinary bills as they get older.
