HAVE you heard about HorseFest, the fantastic new annual festival, taking place from July 23 to 25 2021?
A must attend for all those horse fans with an interest in the equine world, HorseFest will allow you to come together, learn, celebrate, have fun and create special memories.
The summer event is being held at Weston Park in Shropshire, and one lucky Equitrader reader will win a pair of Adult Weekend Camping tickets worth £195 each, allowing you to stay on site for the three days to get the full experience.
A host of major names from the horse world will be holding demonstrations, having fun Q&A sessions, talk shows, workshops, discussions and so much more, it’s the place to be for your horsey fix this summer.
If eventing is your passion then there’s no better names than superstars Mary and Emily King passing on the skills and expertise that have seen them achieve so much in their chosen sport.
And if that’s not enough the much-loved Jonty Evans and his top ride Cooley Rorkes Drift will be telling the story that captured the hearts of thousands when their partnership was secured thanks to a successful crowd-funding campaign.
For cutting edge action, combined with classical dressage movements and liberty work that will truly capture the imagination, Ben Atkinson is the man of the moment and will no doubt prove a major hit with his many fans attending.
When it comes to dressage and proving that with hard work and dedication you really can make it big in the sport, there’s no better advocate than Steph Croxford.
Well remembered for her brilliant partnership with Mr President, Steph will no doubt impart her knowledge in the fun manner she is known for.
Mention Sam Turner, and the traditional gypsy cob Billy Whiz springs to mind. Their rise to Grand Prix status is well documented, listen to their story during your stay at HorseFest.
Eventer turned show jumper, Jay Halim is always great fun to be around and there’s no doubt his demonstrations will be relatable for HorseFest goers.
Performance psychologist Charlie Unwin and natural horseman Jason Webb are set to entertain with their ‘Meeting of Minds’ demonstration, which will see two of the very best in the industry develop both horse and rider on their journey.
A fascinating insight into equine locomotion, training, management and welfare from an anatomical perspective will be provided by Gillian Higgins of Horses Inside Out as she paints her horse and talks about movement and traction from the equine perspective.
At night, unwind, relax or dance the night away with live music and entertainment, or get involved with fun quizzes as you treat yourself to a drink or two!
Throughout the event there will be a variety of tasty and innovative food stalls and bars as well as a shopping village that will include horsey and lifestyle stands to browse and enjoy.
