Held on grounds that have welcomed generations of equestrians since 1896, the event offers four days of competition ranging from .85m jumpers through Grand Prix-level classes.
Highlights include the $25,000 Devon Fall Classic Grand Prix, Open Speed Stake, Welcome Stake, Junior and Amateur Jumper Classics, and Young Jumper divisions.

Grafton, Chairman and CEO of the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair. “As we celebrate Devon’s 130th anniversary, this event represents the perfect blend of tradition, community, and world-class competition. It also gives many riders their first chance to compete on the famed Dixon Oval, gaining valuable experience as they work toward qualifying for the Devon Horse Show in May 2027. We look forward to welcoming competitors from throughout the Mid-Atlantic and beyond.”
