The trials are cancelled in 2020 due to COVID-19. Join us for the 2021 Kingston Sheep Dog Trials Festival in August 2021.

Open to the public with paid admission.

This annual event, held at the beautiful Grass Creek Park attracts over 7,000 spectators throughout the three-day festival. The trials are an agricultural sport celebrating our connection to our urban neighbours. Visitors and handlers from all over the globe make Kingston their home for three amazing days of trials competition.

For those spectators less familiar with the sport of trialing, there are many wonderful Festival attractions to entertain and delight you! You'll enjoy Kingston Police K-9 demonstrations, DockDogs Worldwide, and many more! Bring your own canine to the trials, and let them have fun at the canine adventure lure course and in the doggie playzone! The Marketplace will treat you to a host of exhibitors with hand crafted items and commercial vendors who have everything your own pets might need. There is lots to do for both human and canine spectators!

If you are a repeat visitor to the trials, welcome back! If you have never been before, we welcome you as well; here's hoping you will become a repeat visitor.
