WHAT IS THE PENNSYLVANIA NATIONAL HORSE SHOW?
THE PNHS IS ONE OF THE OLDEST AND MOST PRESTIGIOUS HORSE SHOWS IN THE COUNTRY.
From its modest four‑day, 226‑horse debut in 1946, the PNHS has grown into a prestigious 11‑day competition featuring approximately 1,200 horses from all 50 states and abroad. Across the 11 days of the horse show, the PNHS crowns champions in hunter, jumper and equitation events, including the Dover Saddlery/USEF Hunter Seat Medal Final, the $100,000 Grand Prix de Penn National and much more.
