The ALX Dog Walk & Sustainability Festival returns Saturday, April 18, 2026 in Old Town Alexandria, VA to unite two powerful causes—promoting sustainable living and animal welfare—for one joyful, community-wide celebration of pets and the planet.

Join 2,000+ people and their furry friends for a 2-mile walk down historic Union Street and returning along the scenic Potomac River to Old Town’s Oronoco Bay Park for a celebration that offers something for everyone – an interactive marketplace of sustainable products and eco-art, adoptable pets, family-friendly dog and kids’ activities, delicious food, DJ music, doggie portraits, and more. It’s a celebration of community, the environment, and the animals we love.

Fan favorite and NBC4 Washington Meteorologist, Chuck Bell, returns for the fifth time (!) as event emcee, bringing his signature charm, energy, and love for the environment and dogs – PLUS – this year, Alexandria’s Monte Durham of “Say Yes to the Dress Atlanta” will co-emcee alongside Chuck!

Proceeds from the 2026 ALX Dog Walk benefit two local special nonprofits – both ALX Dog Walk’s year-round environmental education efforts in the DMV and the AWLA’s work for Alexandria’s animals.
