Horse Shows at Hickstead - The Longines Royal International Horse Show
23 - 27 JULY 2008

The Official Horse Show of the British Horse Society. We are delighted to be the long-standing host of the Longines Royal International Horse Show, one of the oldest shows in the world, which celebrates its centenary this year. One of the biggest outdoor shows in the country, the RIHS uniquely sees the elite of many equestrian disciplines compete side by side: it has everything from the thrills.and spills. of international showjumping, to the elegance and glamour of the country's very best showing horses and ponies, to the exhilarating buzz of the country's best eventers flying across country.



For showing riders the Longines Royal International Horse Show is exclusively a championship show, and is the culmination of many months of qualifications throughout the winter, with a host of prestigious classes for every breed of british horse and pony. The show also stages the peak of winter national showjumping qualifiers as the home to the BSJA Winter Finals. As well as this it is the British public's only chance to see their national showjumping team compete, in the Samsung Super League with FEI Competition (Great Britain), which sees the top eight countries in the world competing against each other for the greatest inter-nation showjumping prize.
