Tallinn International Horse Show 2026

2–4 October, Unibet Arena will once again be filled with horses, top-level equestrian sport and spectacular entertainment.

Tallinn International Horse Show returns for its 23rd edition, bringing three days of international show jumping, dressage, an FEI Jumping World Cup™ qualifier and a varied entertainment programme to the audience.

Horse Show is more than an equestrian competition. It is a full-day experience where sport, music and show alternate throughout the day. This year’s highlights include Italian equestrian artist Diego Giona’s horse show, a live performance by ALIKA, the legendary Six Bar, the traditional pony show and Sunday’s FEI World Cup Grand Prix.

Three days – three different programmes

Friday, 2 October – equestrian sport, Diego Giona and Ladies’ Night

The Horse Show opens in the morning with competitions for young riders and young horses. As the day progresses, the fences rise to 140 cm and the evening programme combines high-level sport with entertainment.

At 19:00, Italian equestrian artist Diego Giona enters the arena with a show that combines speed, precision, horsemanship and the exceptional partnership between horse and rider.

The evening continues with Ladies’ Night, featuring fashion and beauty alongside equestrian sport, followed by international dressage. The day ends with Young Stars Dressage.
