The event forms part of Whiteley’s 10th anniversary celebrations which includes a series of summer sessions with family-friendly shows and activities, live music and performances from local acts throughout July and August.
Mia Gordon, centre director, said: “It’s been a pleasure to welcome the local community to our centre over the last 10 years and we’re proud that we’ve always welcomed pooches too – we can’t wait to celebrate our big birthday together with visitors and their furry friends.
“This is just the beginning of our summer of celebrations and we’re so excited for what’s to come!”
