The Austin Humane Society’s beloved Puppy Bowl is back and better than ever in 2025! The 18th annual event, presented by Heritage Ranch by H-E-B, will be held on Saturday, February 8 from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at the AHS shelter (124 W. Anderson Lane).
Our 18th Annual Puppy Bowl will be an epic day of delicious tailgate bites, puppy races, Super Bowl puppy predictions, pet adoptions, all wrapping up with Puppy Bowl LIVE! at Yard Bar. The fun starts at 11:00 a.m. at the Austin Humane Society with adorable adoptables, vendors, a Kid Zone, great eats, and our 7th Annual Tailgate Competition. Puppy Bowl is free to attend, or you can upgrade your experience with our V.I.P. (Very Important Puppy-fan) pass, which comes with a commemorative Puppy Bowl t-shirt and swag, 1 drink ticket, and entry into the 7th Annual Tailgate Food Competition, where you’ll get to taste every competitor’s tailgate bite and help crown the winner. Or, you can purchase a Tailgate Tasting Ticket for just $10.
All proceeds will benefit animals in need!
The fun continues with Puppy Bowl LIVE! at Yard Bar (6700 Burnet Road) from 2:00-5:00 p.m. This is your chance to get your dog in on the action.
