Dog owners are being invited to make a splash for a day out their pets won’t forget.

Doggy Splash will return to Aldershot Lido this September, giving dogs exclusive access to the outdoor pool.

The event, hosted by Everyone Active in partnership with Rushmoor Borough Council, will take place on September 5 and 6, after the summer season ends.

Ashley Miles, Everyone Active’s general manager at Aldershot Lido, said: "We're delighted to be bringing Doggy Splash to Aldershot Lido this September.

"It's a fantastic opportunity for dogs and their owners to enjoy one last swim together before the summer season comes to an end.

"With bookings already proving popular, we'd encourage anyone wanting to take part to book early."

More than 1,210 places have already been reserved.

Each day will include three sessions from 10am to 12pm, 1pm to 3pm, and 4pm to 6pm, with up to 200 dogs per session.

Cllr Sophie Porter, Rushmoor Borough Council portfolio holder for healthy communities and active lives, said: "Doggy Splash is a much-loved event that brings the community together and gives dogs and their owners a fun and memorable way to enjoy Aldershot Lido at the end of the summer season."

Tickets cost £20 for one dog and one owner.
