Our equestrian competitions
From shire horses to working hunter ponies, the equine events have always played an important role in the Lincolnshire Show. Over the years the showjumping competitions, scurry classes and heavy horse turnouts have proved a popular attraction in the Main Ring.
If you wish to receive a hard copy of the Equine Prize Schedule send in an A5 SAE with a Large Letter stamp on it or 2 x 1st Class stamps. Please mark the SAE with the word 'HORSE' (so that you are sent the correct entry forms and schedule) and send it to:
Equine Secretary, Lincolnshire Agricultural Society, Lincolnshire Showground, Grange-de-Lings, Lincoln LN2 2NA.
A digital version of the Equine Prize Schedule for the 135th Lincolnshire Show on the June 19th & June 20th will be available to view on this page in Spring 2019.
