4 Paws - Santa Paws in the Park
Save the date: join us on Sunday 19 July for a wagging good time! Santa Paws in the Park is back for its fourth year - bigger, brighter and more paw-some than ever!
Following three successful years of Santa Paws celebrations on the Sunshine Coast, 4 Paws Animal Rescue is excited to introduce a brand new feature for 2026 - the Santa Paws Walk in the Park!
Join fellow animal lovers, families and their dogs for a relaxed 1km community walk, helping raise funds for homeless cats and dogs in need.
The walk marks an exciting new chapter for the much loved Santa Paws event, which is now in it's fourth year. After the walk, stay and enjoy a morning of free community fun featuring:
- Dog competitions and prizes
- Santa photos
- Market stalls
- Food trucks
- Live demonstrations
- Raffles and silent auctions
Whether you have a dog or simply love animals, everyone is welcome to join in the festivities and support a great local cause.
As a 100% volunteer run rescue, all funds raised help 4 Paws Animal Rescue provide care, veterinary treatment and new beginnings for vulnerable cats and dogs in need
