Florida Horse Park

Situated right in the middle of the Sunshine State, Florida Horse Park is renowned for holding some of the top equestrian events in the Southeast. The 500-acre park routinely hosts local, national and international competitions in nearly every equine discipline, such as rodeos, dressage, eventing, and polo. In addition to equine events, the park also hosts international festivals, RV Shows, dog shows, and many 5k runs. Opened in 1996, the venue was named a US Equestrian Team official training site 10 years later, and it continues to grow. In 2014, Florida Horse Park opened a 79,500-square-foot arena, where a variety of events from every discipline are held. Other recent additions include the welcoming center, built in 2011, and a set of stabling structures, the first of which was completed last year. Florida Horse Park was recently ranked in the top 8 equestrian facilities in America by the Sports Planning Guide. Often called the Horse Capital of the World, Marion County is a hot spot for equestrian shows—and Florida Horse Park is the crown jewel!!
