Championships

Honouring tradition, showcasing champions

The Abu Dhabi International Arabian Horse Championship is a tribute to beauty, heritage and tradition, and contributes to the UAE being recognised as a global destination for Arabian horse events. Now one of only seven ECAHO Title Shows worldwide, it holds a place of honour on the international stage, drawing the world’s finest Arabian horses, breeders, owners and enthusiasts.

Set against the spectacular backdrop of the Etihad Arena, the Championships is under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President of the UAE, Deputy Prime Minister, Chairman of Presidential Court, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Emirates Arabian Horse Society. It celebrates the deep connection between the Arabian horse and Emirati culture, and the arena comes alive with touches of Emirati heritage, from architectural details inspired by traditional UAE design to art galleries showcasing works that celebrate Arabian horses and the legacy of falconry.

This is where heritage, excellence, and passion for the Arabian horse come together on a global stage. Here, the spirit of the Arabian horse lives on – timeless, proud and unforgettable.
