(New York, NY) – The Westminster Dog Show is coming back to the Big Apple. The 149th annual dog show will be taking place next year at Madison Square Garden on February 8th-11th. Traditionally it was held at the Garden dating back to 1877 before it was “Madison Square” and was known as Gilmore Garden.
The competition moved in recent years between Westchester and Queens due to the pandemic. The main event of “Best in Show” returns to Manhattan just ahead of the 150th anniversary of the competition.
