Badminton Horse Trials 2023: Artisans, tickets, important info
Badminton Horse Trials (Thursday 4th May to Monday 8th May 2023) are back for another wonderful year, with world-class sport, fabulous shopping and delicious food, all set within the beautiful parkland of the historic Badminton estate in South Gloucestershire.
Even if you're new to international equestrian events, you're guaranteed to have a good time. Eventing covers three different disciplines, so you can watch competitors dazzle in dressage, cross country, and show jumping, too.
Discerning shoppers have the vast shopping village to explore (covering everything you can think of), and foodies have plenty of catering options to choose from. If you fancy staying for the full weekend, there are both glamping and camping options available.
You can even join Country Living in person as we return with our pop-up artisan shopping pavilion. You can shop everything from handmade dog beds and vintage-inspired ceramics to stylish hats, all in one place. If you want to check out our exhibitors before you visit, take a look at our comprehensive list.
