A new era for Equus

Equus – The Horse Event returns to the ExCel centre in the centre of London’s Docklands next April for the fourth year in a row, with a new sponsor and new owners at the helm.

IPC Media, publisher of Horse & Hound, HORSE and Eventing magazines plus www.horseandhound.co.uk, will be sponsoring the popular event which appeals to equestrian enthusiasts of all levels.

Fiona Dent, publishing director for the titles, says: “EQUUS is about sharing equestrian knowledge with riders of all abilities and encouraging greater enjoyment of our sport, and so we are delighted to support EQUUS 2004.”

In celebration of the new partnership, the show is expected to return to its original format, which allows visitors free access to the main arena throughout the day with the morning demonstrations being repeated in the afternoon. This should provide visitors with lot of time to enjoy the trade stands as well as watch the displays.

Tim Walsh, chairman and founder of TJW Exhibitions, the new owners of Equus, says: “The new team plans to make Equus even better and more fun to visit than ever before with a number of new features, which will make the show a great day out for everyone.”

EQUUS currently attracts more than 20,000 visitors each year thanks to its unique combination of attractions, exhibits and seminars. For more information about Equus visit: www.equusevent.co.uk
