In an industry in which there are numerous “horse fairs” of all sizes and calibers, Equine Affaire has achieved a level of success which, by all relevant criteria, sets it apart from other all-breed, all-discipline equine expositions in North America. While the equine exposition concept developed by Equine Affaire, Inc. is often imitated, the events produced each year by Equine Affaire's professional production team are never equalled. Equine Affaire continues to be "the nation's premiere equine exposition and equestrian gathering."

• Since 1994 Equine Affaire, Inc. has produced 32 successful events, and attendance at the events has grown steadily over the years.
