NEW this year, we are giving away two all inclusive trips to the Mexican Riviera* including air fare and resort accommodations for 7 days. Stop by Apple Vacations tent at HOGTOBER and enter to win. You can even take a spin on their flight simulator.
Bring the kid’s too! Face painting, balloon art, pig skin toss, and games will all be part of the piglet pen.
Lawn chairs welcome, but leave all coolers, food and beverages at home. No pets allows, we love them, but due to the large crowds they are safer at home.

No pets… This is Church Hill correct?
Is the Food Free? I only ask because Im bringing a vegetarian who’ll surely doesn’t like BBQ flavored anything or pork. I however have no such scruples!
Nope, there is a cost. However…
“And new this year, Mosaic will be serving up Vegan Brisket”
Anyone remember how much was it last year?
No pets like the Irish Festival. These festivals bring lots of folks to the park and some don’t pay too much attention to their furry children.
Also look at the high of a stoller and the height of your dog. Will you dog not take food dangling from a 2 yr old in his nose?
I agree with @4, I love dogs but usually not at a crowded, heavily-attended pork festival.
@5, it’s also against Health Dept. rules to have dogs around where there is food. @4 has an excellent point about the height of the dog and baby strollers, too.
