The Devine Dog Show is a joyful highlight of Pride on the Range, bringing together our community’s most fabulous four‑legged friends for an afternoon of charm, chaos, and celebration. Hosted in the garden of the Carlton Club this much‑loved event invites local pups to strut their stuff in playful categories including Best dressed, Most devine dog, Campest walk and cleverest canine. It’s wholesome, hilarious, and unmistakably Pride on the Range.

Sign up on the day with our volunteers at the Garden Party on Saturday 23rd May 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

After breaking on to the comedy scene in 2022, founder of Bliss Comedy Mary Cross, aka the Punning Linguist, has quickly become a firm favourite on the circuit with her own brand of high-energy comedy which leaves audiences on a euphoric high.

UK Pun Championship Semi-Finalist in 2024, 2025 and 2026 and with sellout shows in the Women in Comedy Festival, Lancaster Comedy Festival and the Edinburgh Fringe, Mary's combination of relatable stories, original songs and linguistic acrobats is a sure-fire winner.
