Did you know that almost half of all Las Vegas residents own a dog? Many other Las Vegans are the proud parents of cats, fish, birds, pigs, rodents and reptiles. Mix 94.1’s Pet-a-Palooza celebrated our love affair with our pets with a day in the park where you could bring your pet, listen to great live music, eat delicious food, shop for both you and your pet, visit with many animal exhibitors and even adopt a new pet.

Mix 94.1’s Pet-a-Palooza made its debut on April 15, 2000 at Cragin Park and attracted nearly 4,000 pet lovers and 1,500 animals. The event became so successful during its first several years that it had to keep moving to larger parks until it made its way to Star Nursery Field at Sam Boyd Stadium where it has taken place the last seven years. Pet-a-Palooza now attracts over 15,000 pet lovers and over 4,000 pets! Additionally, over 45 different animal rescue groups and non-profit organizations are on-site with their adoptable animals.
