➤ Go straight to the latest Bolesworth news
The Bolesworth International Horse Show in Cheshire is taking place across two long weekends again in 2026 as Bolesworth International, presented by Al Shira’aa, starting on Friday 26 June and finishing on Sunday 5 July.
The event will feature multiple days of international showjumping up to CSI4* level, alongside live music, fantastic festival experiences and entertainment, plus exclusive ringside hospitality set in front of the stunning backdrop of Bolesworth Castle. Camping will be available off-site, just 8mins away from the venue.
The prestigious CSI3* and CSI4* showjumping always attracts a top-class field to Bolesworth Horse Show. The puissance will be on Saturday 27 June, and the showjumping action comes to a head with the grands prix on Sunday 28 June and Saturday 4 July.
Liberty specialist Ben Atkinson will be performing with his fantastic team of horses on 4-5 July, and the ever-popular Shetland Pony grand national will be delighting the crowds on 27-28 June.
For those who prefer their horsepower in the form of four wheels rather than four legs, classic cars will be on show 26-28 June, while super cars will be displayed 3-5 July.
The shopping village will showcase a fantastic range of products including high-end equestrian outlets, exclusive fashion retailers, unusual giftware and beautiful things for the home and garden. And visitors will be spoilt for choice when it comes to food, with anything from a gastro-pub style restaurant and champagne bar to a hog roast and doughnuts available.
