Equine Affaire’s roster of presenters will include Olympians; World and National Champion riders; Pan Am Games, WEG, and NFR competitors; popular equestrian TV personalities; authors; course designers; judges; veterinarians; professors, and other top industry professionals from throughout the United States and beyond.
 

Shop the Largest Equine-Related Trade Show in the East

Enjoy one-stop shopping at Equine Affaire’s huge trade show—simply the best place to shop for all of your horse and rider needs. More than 475 of the nation's leading equine-related retailers, manufacturers, service providers, and organizations will fill five exhibit halls and many of the outdoor areas in between. Browse acres of informative exhibits and equine products ranging from tack, riding apparel, artwork, gifts, and grooming supplies to fencing, stalls, barns, farm equipment, and horse trailers.

We're excited to announce that we've redesigned the trade show floor plan in the Mallary Complex to accommodate the on-going demand for exhibit space at the event as well as to expand the offerings to attendees.  We're reduced the size and number of bulk spaces in order to add more than 120 new exhibit booths in the north and south halves of the building and create a floor plan that will mimic that of the Better Living Center.  Attendees will see a lot of new exhibitors as this year's event as well as an impressive New Product Showcase in the Mallary Complex.

Find the Horse of Your Dreams at the Breed Pavilion and Horse & Farm Exhibits

More than 40 breeds of horses from North America, Europe, and beyond will be featured in Equine Affaire’s hugely popular Breed Pavilion and Horse & Farm Exhibits area. Representatives of national and regional breed associations and color registries will be available to answer your questions about their breeds, and a rotating cast of equines from miniatures to drafts and from stock horses to sport horses will be on exhibit and presented in hand for “up close and personal” evaluation. Breed demonstrations conducted in the clinic arenas will provide opportunities to appreciate the conformation, characteristics, and aptitudes of different breeds. The Horse & Farm Exhibits will complement the Breed Pavilion and be the perfect place to connect with representatives of individual breeding farms and training stables to research breeds of horses, horses for sale, stallions at stud, riding lessons, and training and boarding facilities throughout New England.

Equine Affaire recognizes the importance of the next generation of horsemen through its Youth Pavilion where young horse enthusiasts will find exhibits by horse-related youth organizations, a demo ring with presentations specifically geared to the interests and needs of young riders, breed spotlights, and a host of fun activities including model horse painting, a trivia quest, stick horse making, and a stick horse rodeo.
