Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show

A Scottsdale Tradition Since 1955

By Judy Hedding, About.com

The Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show has been raising funds for worthy charities since 1955. The annual event is sponsored by the Arabian Horse Association of Arizona.

What is the Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show?

Each year the Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show attracts thousands of visitors who will watch over 2,000 Arabian and Half-Arabian horses vie for prize money in various classes of competition. If you are an Arabian horse owner, a horse rider, or just a horse lover, the Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show is a one-of-a-kind event that should not be missed.

When you aren't watching the horses and riders, you can enjoy the more than 300 vendors and exhibitors on the trade show floor. If it's a horse item you want, you're sure to find it here!

Tired of shopping? You can attend one of the more than 25 seminars and demonstrations at the Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show.
