WIN TICKETS TO THE

WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS HORSE SHOW!

The world’s most famous horse show returns to Birmingham’s NEC from 4 - 8 October with the most spectacular programme of events ever seen at Britain’s biggest indoor equestrian event.  We have teamed up with Horse of the Year Show and The NEC to offer you the chance to be at the opening day of the Show so you can experience the exciting atmosphere first hand.

This year Horse of the Year Show (HOYS) is proud to present entertainment with a traditional flavour combined with modern innovation! No matter how young, old or how equestrian, all visitors will be treated to an action-packed extravaganza.

 In addition to top class competition, the Show welcomes the long-awaited return of the famous Musical Drive of the Heavy Horses - for this year only. The much-loved Musical Drive will strike chords of the by-gone era in this exclusive and emotive display set to stirring traditional music. In the same traditional vein, the majestic Household Cavalry, will be debuting their new regal Musical Ride on their graceful black horses, resplendent in their tunics epitomising the very best of British tradition!

HOYS is famous for discovering the undiscovered and have once again unearthed the next big thing in equestrian entertainment - the unique fire-eating ‘Caracole’ horsemen from France, who will be making their UK debut this year with their exclusive and riveting display.

This year will also see high speed scurry driving and the final of the 50^th Prince Philip Cup Pony Club competition. And away from the action of the Arenas, there is a shopper’s paradise. The spacious Retail Village houses more than 250 trade stands offering everything from tack to toys and jewellery to jodhpurs. Next door, visitors will have an opportunity to come face to face with a variety of different breeds in the Interactive Feature Area in the HOYS Pavilion and enjoy a host of additional visitor attractions including rider signings and celebrity interviews on the HOYS Stage.

If ever there was a year to experience the World’s Most Famous Horse Show, then surely it has to be 2006!
