PetWalk returns to Kapiolani Park with free pet adoptions this weekend

Oct 23, 2026

The Hawaiian Humane Society's biggest annual fundraiser is back, and it's good news for Oahu's shelter animals and anyone looking to adopt.

  • The 36th annual PetWalk happens Saturday at Kapiolani Park, with registration still open online.
  • All pet adoption fees are waived for the entire weekend through the Hawaiian Humane Society.
  • Money raised supports the roughly 13,000 animals the shelter takes in each year.
  • The event includes a walking route, a shorter senior stroll, an agility course, and a costume contest for pets and people.
  • People who can't attend can still help by volunteering, fostering, or donating supplies.

Outlook: Organizers expect a strong turnout given free adoptions and the Halloween-timed costume contest, with proceeds funding shelter operations through the coming year.
