International Equestrian Event Scheduled Near Temecula Wine Country

Top-level riders and horses from the United States, Canada and other countries will converge at Galway Downs Equestrian Center just outside Temecula Wine Country on March 28-31 for one of the horse world’s biggest West Coast events.

The Galway Downs International Horse Trials will see more than 60 horse-and-rider combinations performing in dressage, negotiating a demanding show jumping course and galloping over the more than 30 jumps on the cross-country course designed by Ian Stark of Great Britain, the Galway Downs course designer since 2007.

Equine Insurance of California and the U.S. Eventing Association Gold Cup are the presenting sponsors of the event. 

General admission for the Galway Downs International Horse Trials is $10 per day in advance, $12 at the gate, with children under 12 free when accompanied by a paying adult.

Patron’s passes—which include seating in the ringside tent, lunch and a full selection of beverages—are also available for $55 per day or $150 for the weekend in advance. For advance reservations, go to www.galwaydowns.com.
