The decision to host the National Horse Show at Tryon International reflects a clear focus on horse welfare, footing and facilities, and an environment designed to support top-level competition.

Tryon International offers the footing, facilities, and space required to support high-level competition, with a clear emphasis on creating the best possible environment for the horse.

Since 1883, the National Horse Show has continued to evolve in response to the needs of the sport. Hosting this year’s event at Tryon International is a continuation of that approach—aligning the competition with a venue equipped to support it at the highest level.
