Day 4 at Crufts: The Grand Finale

It all comes down to this! After four days of incredible competition, displays, and heart-warming moments, Crufts 2025 is set to go out with a bang on ‘Best In Show Sunday’. Whether you're here for the shopping, the sports, or the spectacle, here’s your guide to making the most of the Crufts Coup de Grace…

(Memories from 2024)

08:35 – The Agility Championships – Small/Medium (Jumping) get underway in the Main Arena. Expect lightning-fast runs and top-tier teamwork as dogs and handlers compete for glory! 

09:40 – A Rescue Dog Agility Display takes centre stage, showcasing the life-changing work of rescue organisations. You’ll laugh, you’ll cheer, and you might even shed a tear watching these incredible dogs in action! 

10:15 – Last chance to hit the 500+ trade stands before the show wraps up! We’d recommend stopping by The Kennel Club Stand in Hall 3 (Stand 58) for some Art of Crufts merch! 

11:15 – Back to the BP Pulse LIVE for the always-popular Southern Golden Retriever Display Team – a beautifully choreographed performance featuring a sea of wagging tails and heart-melting teamwork. 

12:00 – The lunch break bell is sounding in my stomach and today I’m thinking bagels from The Bagel Factory. With so much going on you don’t want to take too long a break so a fresh sesame seed bagel with salmon and cream cheese will absolutely hit the spot. 

13:15 – Time for a short musical interlude as we head over to the Activities Ring for a spot of HTM (Heelwork-to-music). Always interesting, always entertaining. 

14:20 – Over in the GCDTS Ring it’s now time for the Royal Air Force Police Display, an impressive display of power and control and a great opportunity to celebrate their work. 

16:30 – The Flyball Semi-Finals & Final take over the Bp Pulse LIVE– expect high-speed, adrenaline-pumping action with plenty of barking and cheering! Get here a little earlier if you want to catch the opening performance from Opera star Samantha Oxborough 

17:40 – Stay in those seats (they are like gold dust at this point) for The Kennel Club Hero Dog Award – five extraordinary dogs, but only one can take the title. Get the tissues ready! 

20:30 –AAAAAAAANNNNND NNNNNOOOOOWWWW the moment that we have all been building to. The Olympic Gold, Superbowl, Grand Slam of the dog world…it’s BEST IN SHOW. Seven champions, one crown. All are worthy but who will take home the title Crufts 2025 Best in Show Winer? History will be made! 

And that’s a wrap on Crufts 2025! 🎉 Thank you for being part of the magic – safe travels home, and we’ll see you next year! 💚
