Part of Equine Affaire's mission is to help promote communication and cooperation within the horse industry and to provide a showcase for all breeds of horses and equestrian disciplines. Each Equine Affaire offers an invaluable opportunity for breed association to promote their respective breeds. Each show represents a unique chance for breed associations and their members to "market" the horse they love to new people—to attract new members to their associations and to sell horses.

Breed Pavilion Guidelines

Because of the nature of the event venues, space within the Breed Pavilions at each Equine Affaire is at a premium.  Equine Affaire is committed to offering to as many breed associations as possible the opportunity to exhibit and showcase horses.  In an effort to ensure equal opportunity and consistency in presentation within each Breed Pavilion, there are a number of guidelines which exhibitors are obliged to follow:

• Every breed of horse that is showcased in the Breed Pavilion must be represented by its breed association in an exhibit booth. No individual horse owners will be permitted to represent a breed independent of an official association. Individuals who are interested in having their breeds of horses represented within the Breed Pavilion are encouraged to contact their breed associations and get them involved.

• Horses showcased in the exhibit stalls within the Breed Pavilion may be stallions, mares, or geldings. All horses will be moved from the Breed Pavilion during non-event hours to nearby barns for stabling over night. 

• Breed associations are welcome to share exhibit booths. 

• Each exhibit stall in the Breed Pavilion may be used to showcase multiple horses.  The Equine Affaire Breed Coordinator will assist each breed association by referring interested owners to the appropriate contact person.

Breed Demonstrations

Breed demonstrations are a very important and popular part of Equine Affaire’s education-oriented program. Each demonstration is 10 to 13 minutes in length and is conducted in one of Equine Affaire's major clinic arenas.  Breed demonstrations are the best opportunity for owners of each horse breed to demonstrate the gaits, conformation and special qualities of their breeds. Invitations to conduct a breed demonstration are extended by Equine Affaire's Breed Coordinator to breed associations exhibiting in the Breed Pavilion or Horse & Farm Exhibits area in the order in which completed contracts and deposits for exhibit space are received.
