welcome...

This year's show, our 155th, takes place June 2 - 8, 2008.

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.

Held under The Oaks, in Upperville, Virginia, the showgrounds are located forty miles west of Washington, D.C. in the rolling hills of Virginia's scenic horse country. The magnificent and prestigious Grafton and Salem Farms encompass the show, nestled on both sides of Route 50, between the village of Upperville and town of Middleburg.

Long a favorite of horse show competitors, Upperville features full divisions of entries from all corners of the United States and abroad. The show was voted the Virginia Horse Shows Association Horse Show of the Year and is a designated World Championship Hunter Rider Show.

Upperville is a week-long AA - Rated show with VHSA, MHSA, and USEF events in all Hunter Divisions.

On the grounds one finds pony rides, arts and craft exhibits, boutiques, children's games, a wide variety of food offerings, and a Basset Hound demonstration preceding Sunday's premier event, the Budweiser Upperville Jumper Classic.

Upperville is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization and proceeds are dispersed local charities.
