“WFPK and Waterfront personnel have decided to stick to our “no pets” policy put into place late last season.  As the event continues to grow we worry about the safety of attendees and the pets they bring.  I’m sure most dogs are lovely, but even the calmest of canines can be overwhelmed in a big crowd.  Last season we received reports of a dog bite, dog fights, dogs sneaking food, etc.  Not to mention staff observation of not-so-wise owners who sit with their pet and its sensitive ears right in front of the speakers or owners who don’t think to give their dog water.  We really made the decision as much for the animals as for the concert goers.”

Thanks for your understanding,
