The week-long USPC Festival is held every other year at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Ky. More than 3,000 Pony Club members, volunteers, and families participate, and the public comes to enjoy the festivities as spectators. Anyone is welcome.
USPC Festival is divided up into two parts: Championships and Education.
The first part of the week features Education, which involves mounted and unmounted clinics and workshops taught by Olympians, Pony Club experts, and equine industry professionals. This is open to anyone who wants to learn about horses. On Wednesday, USPC participants arrive to kick off the USPC Festival Championships. Throughout the week, participants, family, and visitors can shop at the USPC Festival trade fair, participate in and watch the mock foxhunt, and enjoy all aspects of Pony Club activities.
