This year's show, our 157th, takes place Monday, June 7, thru Sunday, June 13, 2010.

Upperville is the oldest horse show in the United States. Steeped in tradition, it extends a full seven days, and involves over two thousand horse and rider combinations from young children on ponies to leading Olympic and World Cup riders and horses.
