A Legacy of Excellence
A premier event in the equestrian world, the Eastern States Exposition Horse Show brings together top riders and horses from across the country to compete in a series of prestigious competitions during The Big E. The show features Hunter, Jumpers, Saddlebreds, Hackneys, Morgans, Friesians and Draft Horses in a stunning display of skill, elegance and tradition.
As one of the longest-running and most respected shows in the Northeast, the Eastern States Exposition Horse Show is sanctioned by the USEF (United States Equestrian Federation) and showcases both seasoned champions and rising stars. Whether you’re an enthusiast or new to the sport, this event offers an unforgettable glimpse into the world of competitive horse showing.
The programming takes place in the majestic Coliseum, the first building constructed at Eastern States Exposition in 1916. Over the last century, it has been home to countless agriculture events, hockey, world-class circuses and some of the most iconic performers ever to grace the Exposition.
