The Kentucky Horse Park is an equine theme park and competition facility celebrating mankinds relationship with the horse. Set on more than 1,200 acres in the heart of Kentucky's famous Bluegrass region the horse park offers daily programs and presentations as well as one of the most comprehensive schedule of equestrian events in the country.

During the Kentucky Horse Park’s Main Season, April-October, visitors can enjoy live equine presentations which include the Hall of Champions Show, Parade of Breeds, and the Big Barn Stall-Side Chat. A horse drawn trolley takes guests on a short 10-minute ride to discuss the history of the park with guests. The International Museum of the Horse, the largest of its kind in the world, and The American Saddlebred Museum are also included with admission. Children's pony rides and horseback trail rides take visitors through some of the Park’s paddocks and can be purchased with or without admission to the Park. Plan your visit at kyhorsepark.com.
