HI all – here are the dates for Takapoto this winter. Heels down / hearts up. Leigh 😊
_______________________________________________________________
TAKAPOTO RIDERS NOTIFICATION
Winter showjumping dates confirmed! Mark your calendars... our 2025 Winter show dates are locked in:
6 - 7 June
11 - 12 July
8 - 9 August
→ Friday: Practice Day
→ Saturday: Show Day
19 - 21 September
→ Friday: Practice Day
→ Saturday & Sunday: Show Days
Following rider feedback and lower demand for Sunday shows during the early Winter shows, we’re keeping things simple with Friday practice and Saturday show days in June, July, and August.
By September, the season’s in full swing - and we’re expecting stronger entries, so we’ll be running a two-day show over Saturday and Sunday.
We look forward to welcoming back our Winter season photographers, Cornege Photography & RG Photos.
