A SEASON TO REMEMBER
Lake Placid Horse Shows
The 2026 Lake Placid Horse Shows brought two unforgettable weeks of world-class competition, record entries, and memorable moments to the heart of the Adirondacks. From the first horse entering the ring to the final victory gallop, the showgrounds were filled with exceptional sport, cherished traditions, and the unmistakable energy that makes Lake Placid so special.
Riders, horses, trainers, owners, and families joined us from across the country and around the world for outstanding hunter, jumper, equitation, and FEI CSI3* competition. Beyond the rings, the season was made extraordinary by the exhibitors, sponsors, volunteers, officials, staff, vendors, spectators, and community partners who brought the showgrounds to life.
Thank you for being part of one of our best years yet. We are proud of everything we accomplished together and look forward to welcoming everyone back to Lake Placid in 2027.
