Tails will be wagging when “yappy hour” on the pitch returns to Energizer Park. St. Louis CITY SC and Founding Partner Purina are once again bringing fans and their furry, four-legged friends an exclusive opportunity to experience Energizer Park from field level at Pups on the Pitch Presented by Purina on Sunday, March 22 from 5:30-7:00 p.m. Guests are encouraged to bring blankets and settle in for a laid-back, picnic-style happy hour right on the pitch, where pups can play and fans can soak in the stadium from a whole new perspective.
A portion of proceeds from the event will benefit CARE STL Adoption Center, located just southwest of Energizer Park.
“Through our partnership with St. Louis CITY SC, we’re always looking for new ways to welcome dogs and their people into the heart of the action,” said Andrea Faccio, President and Chief Growth Officer at Purina. “Pups on the Pitch celebrates the incredible CITY SC fan community and furthers our goal of creating unforgettable experiences for people and pets to enjoy together, all while supporting adoptable pets right here in St. Louis.”

The Pups on the Pitch event is the latest way Purina and St. Louis CITY SC continue to put pets at the center of the fan experience. In 2023, CITY SC and the pet care leader opened Energizer Park’s Purina Club, the first pet-friendly stadium space in Major League Soccer. In 2025, the organizations welcomed fans and their dogs to watch St Louis CITY2 in action at Pups at the Park, which also will return to Energizer Park in 2026. Last summer, Purina also helped the team welcome its first-ever CITY team pet – Petey, a 2-year-old English Labrador Retriever and certified facility dog trained by CHAMP Assistance Dogs – who serves as an ambassador for CITY SC in the community as well as provides wellbeing support to CITY SC players, coaches, front-office staff, supporters and fans.
