World Pup Cup @ Met Park – Cancelled due to Inclement Weather
Today’s World Pup Cup is canceled due to weather and muddy park conditions. We hope to see you at a special dog-friendly park event this August—stay tuned!
—
Get ready for World Pup Cup — a playful celebration of soccer, creativity, and community at Metropolitan Park! Bring your four-legged MVPs for a joyful day packed with playful competition, creative activities, and plenty of opportunities to meet adoptable pups.
What to expect:
- Pup Soccer Field — Let your dog “hit the pitch” with toy soccer balls on our marked-off field while costumed referees make hilariously bogus calls like “offsides!” and “hands!” complete with yellow and red cards.
- DIY Trophy Decorating — Create a one-of-a-kind championship trophy for your pet (or yourself!) using paint markers, sparkles, paper embellishments, names, and jersey numbers.
- Live DJ + Vendors — Enjoy upbeat music from Deejay JL and local vendors, including quality treats from Pet Wants Chantilly, PuppyLuv, pup cups and ice cream from Toby’s Ice Cream, and custom dog portraits.
- Adoption Event with Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation — Meet adorable puppies in the playpen and spend time with older, lovable, highly eligible dogs looking for their fur-ever homes.
We can’t wait to play! Free to attend. No RSVP Required.
