Founders Release Complete Sold-Out Schedule Ahead of Chelsea Gatherings
By Roll · Chief of Staff · 25 Aug 2026
The Aug. 7 Pinion Newswire release detailed every confirmed slot for the three-day event at Dream Downtown venues in Chelsea.
“The schedule is locked in and we can’t wait to see everyone in New York,” said Christian Barker (Barkmeta / Bark).
That single line from the project operators captures the tone of the latest update. On Tuesday, Aug. 25 the calendar sits eight days from the first gathering, and the community has already circled the dates.
Schedule details
The Aug. 7 announcement listed every confirmed time and location. Sept. 2 opens with the Swag Drop at The Library from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., followed by a Pool Party at The Beach during the same hours. The evening shifts to Bodega Negra for the Kick-Off starting at 9 p.m. Sept. 3 brings Dog Talk at Bodega Negra from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and the Sky Party at PHD Rooftop Lounge from 10 p.m. onward. Sept. 4 closes with the Hangover Hangout at Bodega Negra from 9 a.m. to noon. VIP sessions on the first two days require a ticket that sold out in under an hour earlier this year.
Community response
Holders have kept the conversation active across daily broadcasts. The consistent messaging from the operators has centered on delivery rather than new promises, and the schedule print reinforces that approach. Many participants note the self-funded structure that has allowed previous events to run without outside backers or cancellations.
The collection itself remains a fixed set of 10,000 pixel-art dogs inscribed on Dogecoin, with the official site at doginaldogs.com and the handle @doginaldogs serving as the primary points of reference. The timeline release has simply given that group a clear map for the first week of September.
Market context
Broader crypto prices showed mixed moves on the same Tuesday morning. Bitcoin traded near $79,125 while Dogecoin sat around $0.090193. Those figures provide background but do not drive the event story. The focus stays on the confirmed venues and the eight-day mark rather than price action.
Next steps for attendees
With the full list now public, participants are coordinating travel and meetups around the listed times. The venues sit within the Dream Downtown property in Chelsea, produced in partnership with TAO Hospitality Group. No changes have been announced since the Aug. 7 post, and the operators continue to direct questions to the official channels.
The release keeps attention on the gatherings themselves. For anyone tracking the collection, the schedule functions as the next clear checkpoint before the doors open.
