Hey all!
As many of you will have seen, there's been some big news around HOY being on pause for 2026.
Like so many in our community, we're sorry to see this iconic show take a break and we know what a loss this is for the year ahead.
With this change, we're already working hard on our Champs schedule and are more determined than ever to deliver something special for our two-day show.
Masterton Showing Champs will be on 14th-15th February 2026
We'd love to hear from YOU – what would you like to see?
🌟More breed classes?
🌟Challenge classes?
🌟More inhand sections?
🌟More fun classes?
