After much anticipation, tickets are now on sale for the London International Horse Show, returning to ExCeL London from 13 – 18 December 2023.
BD members enjoy a discount code for this wonderful event, coming soon in your member copy of the BD magazine and April Engage newsletter.
The London International Horse Show at ExCeL is the only UK show to host all three FEI World CupTM Qualifiers in Dressage, Show Jumping and Driving. Each performance includes an equestrian competition along with a variety of displays from around the world.
Last year we witnessed Lottie Fry and Van Olst Horses Glamourdale make their first appearance as a combination on British ground, as well as stellar performances by Gareth Hughes, Andrew Gould and plenty more top riders who flock to the show each year. Visit the show on Wednesday 13 December to watch the opening test of the FEI Dressage World Cup TM London leg, the Short Grand Prix supported by Horse & Hound. Dressage returns for day two on Thursday 14 December as the feature event in the evening performance, where the Grand Prix Freestyle to Music competition takes centre stage and decides the combinations taking home valuable qualification points for the FEI Dressage World Cup Western European League table. There's also the chance to enjoy educational interludes, as the show introduces a second arena for 2023 that will host a dressage masterclass on the Thursday afternoon. Other equestrian activity throughout the show includes FEI Driving World Cup action, performances by the Portuguese Lusitanos and Shetland Pony Grand National, plus puissance, six bar, speed and grand prix show jumping competition.
There's also the renowned retail therapy. With shopping containing more than 200 retailers, there is no better place to purchase some Christmas treats for yourself or others. Selling a wide range of goods from all things equestrian, to fashion, jewellery, wines, gifts, novelty items, and fine art, the shopping area will have something for everyone. There are many well-known brands alongside interesting ‘not-on-the-high-street’ shops, offering you some great Christmas present ideas and much more.
