Gulfport’s Get Rescued event is one of the largest animal rescue events in Florida.

GULFPORT – In its 12th year, Gulfport’s Get Rescued animal welfare event  has evolved from one block and a handful of animal rescue groups to a popular and festive event representing rescue groups from throughout the region. Gulfport’s Get Rescued is one of the largest animal rescue events in the state, with all profits to benefit participating non-profit rescue groups.

From 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday (Feb. 27), animal rescue organizations, many appearing with adoptable pets, take over Beach Boulevard to raise money and awareness for their causes.

Additionally, animal-related vendors, artists and crafters offer their wares to festival-goers. Pet-related activities will include an adoptable pet parade, pet care education, pet services, a pet food  and supplies drive, animal rescue groups, free samples, training demos, a Bark-B-Que, food, DJ music and more. Each year, thousands of attendees, many accompanied by their own critter companions, make their way to Gulfport to participate in what has become a beloved tradition.

Well behaved pets and their leashed people are welcome! The event is free for the public to attend with plenty of free parking in and around the area.
