Get ready for an unforgettable bank holiday weekend for all the family to enjoy! Bicton International Horse Trials, running from 22-25 May 2025, is set to deliver four days of world-class equestrian competition in the heart of Devon. With its reputation as a premier eventing venue, Bicton Arena is proud to host the British leg of the FEI Eventing Nations Cup™, bringing top horse and rider combinations from across the globe together in an extraordinary battle for a podium finish.
Alongside the prestigious Nations Cup class, the event will feature an array of exciting sections, including the CCI4*-S which will once again benefit from the generous support of TopSpec. The much-anticipated British Young Rider National Championship, supported by Succeed, will run at CCI3*-L level and see the future stars of the sport showcase their prowess.

All four days of competition will provide an exhilarating experience for both seasoned horse enthusiasts and eventing newcomers alike.

Spectators can enjoy a range of captivating demonstrations, including high-octane performances from the jaw-dropping Knights of Middle England stunt team, fascinating falconry displays and immersive ‘have-a-go’ dog agility experiences. Visitors will have the opportunity to take a break from the equestrian action and explore a range of shops and catering outlets that highlight the very best of the region.
