September 21st marks the official first day of fall, and what better way to kick off the season than with Richmond Animal League’s Fall Fest! Join us at RAL on Saturday, September 21st, from 4:00-7:00 PM!

Guests can look forward to live jazz music by Mr. Chubby and Friends, food, beer & wine for those 21+, vendors, kids' activities, and of course adoptable pets for anyone looking to add a new furry friend to their family. The Fall Fest is open to the public and FREE to attend, with food, beverages, and vendor items available for purchase.

RAL’s Fall Fest will also feature the highly anticipated results of the 2025 calendar contest! The Calendar Contest presented by Total Quality Logistics has been a community favorite, with pet owners competing for a spot in the upcoming calendar. $1 = 1 vote, and every dollar raised supports pets in need. Pets that raise $250 will secure a photo on a date in the calendar, while the top 12 pets will get a professional photoshoot with Brittany Rose Petography and a full month feature. The #1 pet will even grace the cover! If you haven't entered your pet in the Calendar Contest or cast your vote for your favorite pet, now is your chance! At 7:00 pm, as Fall Fest comes to a close, voting will end, and we’ll announce the winners of our 2025 calendar contest. Learn more at https://www.ral.org/calendarcontest.

All proceeds from Fall Fest and the Calendar Contest support Richmond Animal League’s lifesaving work.

Bring a lawn chair and Join RAL for a wonderful afternoon, celebrate the start of fall, and help make a difference in the lives of animals in need! Check out the Fall Fest event on Facebook!
