Equine Affaire Columbus is North America’s premier equine exposition and equestrian gathering, dedicated to elevating the equestrian experience since 1994. The 2026 edition, marking its 70th event, will be held at the Ohio Expo Center & State Fair in Columbus, Ohio. This annual event is expected to attract over 30,000 attendees from across the USA, providing an unparalleled opportunity to celebrate the diversity of the horse world.
From April 9-12, 2026, attendees can immerse themselves in four days filled with hundreds of educational clinics, seminars, and demonstrations that cater to all levels of equestrian enthusiasts. The event will also feature the largest horse-related trade show in the Midwest, boasting over 300 vendors offering a wide array of equine products and services.
This year’s educational lineup includes renowned equestrian educators like John Lyons, Dan James, Jason Irwin, Ben Longwell, and Ariana Sakaris, among others yet to be announced. A highlight of the program will be the return of “Cowtown in Cooper,” an exciting two-day exploration of various cow-oriented disciplines in the Cooper Arena, proudly sponsored by Western Life Today.
Additionally, attendees will have the chance to watch or compete in events such as the Versatile Horse and Rider Competition, network with equine professionals, and meet horses and donkeys available for adoption. The fun continues after hours with the signature event, Fantasia, a two-hour musical extravaganza and equestrian variety show, featuring stunning performances by some of the nation’s most talented equestrians.
This captivating celebration will take place on the evenings of April 9, 10, and 11 at 7:30 PM in the US Equestrian Arena (Taft Coliseum), offering something for everyone, from thrilling draft hitch performances to the elegance of dressage and the excitement of precision drill teams.
