We can hardly believe it… but that’s a wrap on our unforgettable international summer events at Hartpury! 🌟
From the elegance and precision of the NAF Five Star Hartpury Festival of Dressage to the thrill, grit, and glory of the NAF Five Star International Hartpury Horse Trials and British Championships, Gloucestershire has been alive with world-class equestrian sport over the past few months. 🐎✨
This week’s Horse Trials were the perfect crescendo — from amateur heroes to Olympic legends, every rider tested themselves against our beautiful courses and immaculate going. We’ve witnessed courage, disappointment, triumph, unexpected surprises, and pure magic.
💫 To the competitors — you became the class of 2025. You gave us stories to cheer for, moments that had us holding our breath, and memories we’ll never forget. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey, and for the owners, trainers, and support teams who stand behind you every stride.
💫 To our sponsors, particularly NAF — you make this possible. Your passion for the sport and commitment to our events is woven into every success we celebrate. We are endlessly grateful for your belief in Hartpury and all it represents.
💫 To our volunteers, staff, students, alumni, and officials — you are the heartbeat of Hartpury. Whether you join us once a year or work year-round behind the scenes, you create the warm, professional, and welcoming atmosphere that keeps people coming back. You are family.
Thank you also to the spectators who created such a buzz and atmosphere for our competitors to shine.
From the very first trot-up at the Festival to the final gallop through the finish flags, you’ve helped make this a summer we’ll never forget.
Here’s to the memories we’ve made — and to seeing you all again at our international summer events in 2026. ❤️
