Royal Windsor Horse Show Displays
The Main Displays
There are five key Displays in the Castle Arena which take place each day of the Show, but visitors can also enjoy entertainment within our four Hubs, with content and guests varying each day.
DAKS Pony Club Mounted Games
Taking place throughout the Show week, the final of the Games takes place on Sunday. Teams from England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland compete against each other in a variety of challenging but hugely entertaining races – fun for all the family!
The Defender Shetland Pony Grand National
The highly competitive jockeys (and ponies!) will be battling it out for a win in the Castle Arena every day. Watch these brave little ponies speed around the course and cheer them on as they head for the finish.
The Musical Drive of the King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery
The Musical Drive of The King's Troop, Royal Horse Artillery, is a spectacular display, which demonstrates all the talent, courage and skill of this unique display. The Drive comprises six World War One ceremonial guns, 61 horses, 43 mounted soldiers and 16 dismounted soldiers. The Musical Drive showcases the military precision and manoeuvres used in the First World War to drive guns around the battlefield.
Azerbaijan – Land of Fire
Be amazed at this spectacular display of horsemanship and music – all the way from Azerbaijan, presented by the country’s Equestrian Federation. Men and women, dressed in national dress, perform extraordinary acrobatic tricks on horseback and accompany their outstanding display with music from their own culture.
Oman – Jewel of Arabia
This display is set to take spectators through a journey of Oman’s striking landscapes – from searing deserts to verdant mountains and turquoise seas – brought to life by more than 30 Arabian horses, traditional carriages, and a marching band.
Exhibition Polo Match - Azerbaijan vs Guards Polo Club
We are excited to announce that we will be hosting an International Exhibition Polo Match between Azerbaijan and Guards Polo Club, taking place in the Castle Arena on Saturday 17th May in the only evening competition of the week.
The Hubs
Introduced in 2024, the Hubs are areas of special interest to our visitors. For 2025 the four areas – Gardening, Entertainment, Children and Sustainability – will be grouped together and will have one central live stage in the Entertainment Hub sponsored by Talk Horse.
