Partner with Australia's premium dog-friendly tour

Hound & Gather (H&G) is a national tour of premium, dog-friendly events held across Australia's most beautiful wine regions and coastal destinations — from the Barossa Valley to the Sunshine Coast. Across 11 events in our inaugural year, we're bringing thousands of dog-loving families into premium venues for a day of food, wine, market stalls, and tail-wagging fun.

As a brand-new tour with no shortage of ambition, H&G offers sponsors a rare chance to get in on the ground floor of a category-leading national event — and shape it as it grows.

Why Hound & Gather

Private off-lead paddocks typically rent for around $10 per 30 minutes. A $20-25 H&G ticket gives dogs and their owners a 3-hour "sniffari" at a high-end, exclusive-use venue — plus a market of local vendors, contests, wellness activities, and a branded gift — all in one. It's a value proposition our audience recognises immediately, which means real demand, real turnout, and real attention on your brand.

Why partner with us

  • Direct access to an engaged, affluent, pet-owning audience at every stop
  • Premium, exclusive-use venues — wineries, resorts, and estates — that put your brand in a setting your customers already love
  • National reach with local relevance: 11 events across VIC, SA, NSW, and QLD, each rooted in its own regional community
  • On-site activation opportunities, branded presence, and content generated at every event for your own marketing use
