Bark in the Park 2026

Celebrating 30 Years of Helping Animals in Our Community

Thank you for joining us for our 30th Annual Bark in the Park, one of Peoria Humane Society’s largest and most beloved fundraising events.

Animal lovers, families, and their four-legged friends came out to spend the day celebrating animals while helping support programs that make a difference throughout our community. From games and contests to food, vendors, and adoptable animals, Bark in the Park was a fun-filled day for everyone.

Souvenir photos are ready for those who purchased them at the event. Our talented photographers – Little Lantern Photography and Photos by Natausha – made sure the pups and their humans looked their very best!

You can view and download your photos here: Bark in the Park Souvenir Photos 2026.

Why Bark in the Park Matters

Bark in the Park is more than a community event. It helps fund programs that support animals and pet owners throughout the Peoria area.

Proceeds help provide medical care for animals in need, support shelter and adoption programs, assist families through community support initiatives, reduce pet overpopulation, and promote kindness and responsible pet ownership through education.

Every ticket purchased, sponsorship secured, raffle ticket sold, and donation made helps create a better future for local animals.

Couldn't Attend?

You can still make a difference.

Your donation helps support programs that provide medical care, shelter support, pet food assistance, spay and neuter services, youth education, and pet therapy throughout our community.
