Show Information

Arena Eventing Student Show - Dressing up is encouraged! 

Get ready for our next student show, where we’ll be taking on the exciting challenge of Arena Eventing!

Combining the accuracy and technique of showjumping with the boldness and variety of arena cross-country fences, Arena Eventing is a great opportunity to put your skills to the test and enjoy something a little different.

With classes from 50cm all the way up to 1m, there is something for a range of abilities. Whether you are new to Arena Eventing or ready to take on a bigger challenge, come along and see what you and your horse can achieve.

Classes:

  • Class 1 – 50cm

  • Class 2 – 60cm

  • Class 3 – 70cm

  • Class 4 – 80cm

  • Class 5 – 90cm

  • Class 6 – 1m

The event will also be supporting the British Eventing Support Trust, helping to raise funds for a fantastic charity that supports members of the eventing community.

Please note that all competitors will need to bring their own bridle/saddle number. 

So, get ready to tackle a course full of different questions, keep your rhythm and have fun along the way. We look forward to welcoming you to our Arena Eventing student show!
