Equifest

Equifest is firmly established in the UK’s equestrian calendar as one of the largest competing events. It has earned its place as a major festival favourite – fun for both competitor and visitor alike!

Founded by Show Director Betsy Branyan in 2008 at East of England Showground, Equifest has grown significantly attracting over 10,000 riders and visitors to come each year to compete, watch, learn and buy.

Regrettably after 15 years, Equifest has had to find a new home following the sale of East of England Showground from 1st July 2023. The show is now in partnership with Arena UK in Allington, Lincolnshire and will be held from 2nd to 5th August 2023.

Equifest has an avid and loyal following and we are passionate about ensuring our competitors and visitors have fun and enjoy the spirit of our annual festival. We look forward to welcoming competitors to our new home to take part in a variety of disciplines that will include Showing, Unaffiliated Show Jumping, Dressage and Carriage Driving.

For those that wish to come and watch our spectacular entertainment, learn from the experts, or find the perfect product from our trade stands, we’ve got it covered.
