Oklahoma City is home to more horse show events and championships than any other city in the world and we’re lucky to call it our capital city. It’s not only conveniently located in the middle of the country, but it’s also an affordable city filled with amenities and top-notch venues. Whether you’re going to OKC for equestrian competition or entertainment, “the horse show capital of the world” will impress you from the moment you arrive.
Oklahoma City is not only the largest city in the state but its venues are known as some of the best equestrian facilities in the world.
And The World Championship Barrel Racing Futurity - where some of the best cowboys and cowgirls in the country showcase their racing skills as they compete for a championship title.
The State Fair Park is just a few miles away from downtown Oklahoma City and Bricktown, where you'll find many great shopping, dining and entertainment options.
