The I Love New York Horse Show begins on July 4 and runs until July 9.
The action starts each show day at 8:00 am, with classes running simultaneously in five separate rings. Attend this thrilling event for an hour or a whole day and see competition ranging from ponies ridden by tomorrow’s champions to members of the U.S. Equestrian Team atop some of the world’s best horses.
Attend on July 8, and experience the pageantry and tradition of the I Love NY Horse Show 29th annual Doggie Costume Contest (allegedly, King Charles’ coronation was based on it). The horse show’s top dogs will strut their stuff in a special ring near the Richard M. Feldman Grand Prix Field starting at noon, sponsored by Man and Beast. Awards are presented to the “top dogs.” All people with leashed dogs in costume are admitted to the horse show free of charge on this day.
Also on July 8, the $75,000 Richard M. Feldman Grand Prix will be presented by Kadley Farms.
Tickets can be purchased at the entrance gate, as plenty of general seating is available.
Weekday - $8
Weekend - $10
Children under 12 are admitted free.
Discounts for groups of 20 or more are available.
If you are interested in VIP seating, that should be booked earlier, and that information can be found on the Lake Placid Horse Show's website. Call the Horse Show office at (518) 523-9625 for more details.
