NYC’s first-ever Pet Gala is coming to the Museum of the Dog
NEW YORK CITY (PIX11) — Move aside Met Gala — the Pet Gala is coming to New York City.
The Pet Gala will feature iconic designs from the 2024 Met Gala replicated by Anthony Rubio, a pet couturier, in a glamorous evening of pet fashion. The event will debut at the Museum of the Dog in Manhattan on Monday, May 20.
Those interested in attending can purchase tickets for $300 per person. Attendees will be greeted with a flower wall and watch the dogs strut a 21-foot red carpet.
“The designers for The Met Gala have months to create their looks for celebrities to shine on the red carpet. I have two weeks to recreate them and for dogs,” Rubio said.
There will also be a champagne reception, flower wall stations with celebrity dogs, and dinner at Club 101 with an open bar.
