How to watch Horse of the Year Show live from anywhere in the world
Enjoy the very best of equestrian sport live from Birmingham this week
Watch Horse of the Year Show (HOYS) on TV and get a front-row seat for five unmissable days of international showjumping and top-class showing, celebrating the very best of equestrian sport.
Last year we were treated to a HOYS Channel 4 special highlights programme, but unfortunately it’s not happening again this year, so there is only one way to watch the action.
If you decide not to watch the live stream, you can keep up with our Horse of the Year Show live results news service, where showing editor Bethan Simons is bringing us the showing results class by class.
