Grand-Prix Eventing
March 3 @ 7:00 am - 5:00 pm
Grand-Prix Eventing at Bruce’s Field
An Event Like No Other
In 2019, The Aiken Horse Park Foundation was pleased to introduce Aiken’s first Eventing Showcase. Now in its fifth year, the $50,000 Grand-Prix Eventing Festival at Bruce’s Field, presented by Taylor, Harris Insurance Services, has become the highlight of the Aiken winter season and a must attend for the top competitors in the country.
An Eventing “Showcase” is a unique version of Eventing competition that condenses the traditional country-side Eventing environment into a spectator friendly venue. The showcase format allows the general public the chance to be up close and personal, right next to the galloping lanes and massive fences, and experience the thrilling sport of Eventing in a whole new way. This equestrian triathlon presents a prime opportunity for top eventing riders to kick start their competition season, and to welcome the public to an exciting fast-paced equestrian event.
