The Royal London Show is a Championship Show for all types of horses and ponies. Anyone is eligible to compete, provided that they have qualified for entry by being placed in a qualifying class and registered with the International Showing Society. Qualifying classes are held at nearly 200 qualifying shows all over the country throughout the season. The show is pitched at those exhibitors who are perhaps not quite good enough to qualify for HOYS or Olympia, but we also welcome those who have qualified, who want to have a “practice run” before their big day.

Since being taken over by the present management in 2004 the membership of the ISS and the popularity of the show has increased 800%; and with the introduction of new classes each year it's definitely the Championships to be seen at.

The big attraction of the Royal London Show is the glittering Evening Performance, where competitors wear evening dress, and show their horses accompanied by music and spotlights. Entry to the Evening Performance is achieved by being placed in classes throughout the day, and the programme is designed so that as many people as possible can have their moment of glory under the spotlights.

At long last we now have confirmed dates from Peterborough.

The Royal London Show 2009 will take place on the 4th/5th/6th September 

A provisional timetable will be available in the next couple of weeks; most classes will be on the same days as last year, but some classes will be split further, and there will be some extra Evening Championships
