Located in the Gippsland region of Victoria, just one hour from Melbourne, Lardner Park is home to manicured green grass and spectacular gardens making it a picturesque backdrop for any event. Since 1963 Lardner Park has been the premium location for many events, catering to an array of different people and groups. Lardner Park has hosted a variety of events from outdoor ballet to 4WD shows and everything in between. One of their largest and most recognised events is Farm World which has become an outstanding regional agricultural show in Victoria. You will find all the best agriculture has to offer on show, like machines, agtech, sustainable gardens, and equipment just to list a few.
In 2021 Farm World introduced a must-attend event for members of the horse community. This event is the Horseland Equestrian Festival and is a dressage competition for everyone. The Horseland Equestrian Festival brings together members of the horse world to one place to compete, connect and further their skills.
The Horseland Equestrian Festival is an important event for all members of the horse community. It provides different classes of dressage for everyone ensuring that people from all areas of the horse community can come together to compete. At this must-attend event, you will find competitors, spectators, and general horse lovers from the Horse Riding Club Association Victoria, Equestrian Australia, Interschool, and Pony Clubs. Having attendees from all levels, ages and backgrounds make this event a truly stand-out event. It is also an excellent opportunity to network and connect with other horse lovers.
Like many industries and communities, future opportunities can often come down to whom you know, not what you know, and the horse community is no different. The Horseland Equestrian Festival caters to people aged four to 70 so there is an enormous variety of knowledge and experience to network and build relationships with. This is especially important for the youth of the horse world who are hoping to further their development and career in the industry. It provides them with networks that can offer support and opportunities. You just never know when that connection will provide a unique opportunity that you may not have received otherwise
The Horseland Equestrian Festival is also praised for its inclusivity. Not only do they cater for ages four to 70, but they also have para dressage events as well as EV dressage, pony dressage, eventers and show jumpers. To have a showcase event that caters for all ages, abilities and disciplines is a credit to event organisers and sponsors. This is what makes this event an absolute must for those in the horse world. To be a part of an event that values every participant regardless of age or ability is truly special.
Farm World’s Horseland Equestrian Festival has been a sell-out event which just goes to show that it is a must-attend event for those in the horse community. Be sure not to miss out on supporting a truly inclusive dressage event, by attending in 2023!
