HotDogz is Club Animalz's annual holiday festival in Gran Canaria. Unlike the monthly club nights in Manchester and Berlin, HotDogz is a 5-day festival at Axel Beach Maspalomas hotel, combining pool parties, DJ sets, excursions, and accommodation into one package. The second edition runs June 24-29, 2026.
Five days of furry festivities in the sun. The festival includes evening DJ parties, daytime pool events, excursions around Gran Canaria, and branded merchandise. The Axel Beach Maspalomas is an LGBTQ+-friendly hotel in one of Europe's top destinations for sunshine.
HotDogz is open to all genders and identities. The atmosphere follows the Club Animalz ethos: inclusive, relaxed dress code, furry and pup friendly.
