Midwest Charity Horse Show

Midwest Charity Horse Show June 10-14, 2025
Illinois State Fairgrounds Coliseum
801 Sangamon Avenue
Springfield, Illinois Daily performances will be 10:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. daily.

Midwest Charity Horse Show is thrilled to announce its 82nd annual show, June 13-17, 2023, in the Coliseum of Champions. The Midwest Charity website is online at www.midwestcharity.com with prize list, box seat form, entry form, etc. Entries will be accepted electronically through www.horseshowsonline.com
Printed prize lists can be mailed upon request. Our longtime, generous supporters enabled us

to donate $20,000 to the Southern Illinois University School of Medicine’s Pediatric Support Fund from proceeds of its 2022 multi-breed show. We are grateful for and look forward to our sponsors’ continued support as it is more important than ever this year to put on a show of this caliber. Since its inception, the Midwest Charity Horse Show, an all-volunteer, nonsubsidized organization, has donated its annual proceeds to a Springfield area charity and has selected SIU School of Medicine’s Department of Pediatrics as its beneficiary. Since 1987, Midwest Charity Horse Show Association (MCHSA) in partnership with SIU School of Medicine’s Department of Pediatrics has been an integral part of helping children with chronic illnesses live happy, healthier lives. Proceeds from this year’s horse show help provide overnight lodging, food and/or transportation for families whose child is receiving treatment. The MCHSA endowment has given more than $277,000 to SIU School of Medicine's Department of Pediatrics since 1987. For more information about the Midwest Charity Horse Show call Show Manager/President, Carole Kennedy at 217-414-1900.

UPDATED:
We have a power outage at the facility due to fire/blown transformer on the Fairgrounds. Once replaced the Fairgrounds says 3-5 hours so we will not restart the show before 5:00 pm.

Once the Illinois State Fairgrounds powers back up, and they get the Fairgrounds paging systems working we will be able to restart the show.

We will keep you posted. Our apologies for the inconvenience. We appreciate all of you and the great horses, ponies and exhibitors attending our event.

We will have at least a thirty minute break between sessions and will adjust this evening’s schedule if necessary to follow USEF Guidelines.

Please allow repairs to be made without interrupting the electric service employees.
