Melbourne International Three Day Equestrian Event
Spend three days watching some of Australia's best horse riders compete at dressage, cross-country and show jumping.
Overview
Every year, Australia's finest horse riders converge on stunning Werribee Park for three days. And you're invited to watch them in action.
The competition will start on Friday, June 6 with dressage, which carries into Saturday. The following day, the riders will let loose on a cross-country course around the property's beautiful grounds. Then, come Monday, it's show-jumping time. Whoever performs best across all three events will be announced champion and take home some serious prize money.
In between watching, head to the Trade Village to wander among horsey-related stallholders. You'll come across apparel (for animals and people) by Valley Horsewear, saddles by Bates, equestrian gear by Castlefin and loads more. Plus, on Sunday evening, catch the indoor speed jumping competition, set to music.
Entry on Friday is free; tickets range from $12.50–$110 Saturday–Monday. You can book ahead online.
