For the safety of visitors, exhibitors and most importantly, our horses --- we have a few rules we would like you to follow when visiting us. 

1. Pet must be leashed at all times.
2. No outside food or beverages (including coolers, containers, bottles, etc.).
3. No firearms, weapons, fireworks, balloons or any items that may startle a horse. 
4. Finally, please no trespassing after hours, solicitations, proselytizing or disruptive behavior. 

Wellington International management reserves the right to remove anyone who does not follow these rules from the property.

Wellington  International hosts hunter/jumper horse shows year-round. Our largest event is the Winter Equestrian Festival (WEF), which runs from January through March. For specific show dates, please click here for our list of upcoming events and join us on Facebook for current information on our shows, themed events and live updates as they happen. If you’ve never been to a horse show, our Horse Show 101 page is also helpful for learning about the competition you’ll be watching!

Admission to our horse shows and events is free and no tickets are required. We hope you’ll bring the whole family or a car full of friends! Parking is free for our daytime horse shows and daytime valet is available for $15.

Our Saturday Night Lights Grand Prix show jumping events during WEF are also free, with just a $22 charge per car-load for parking. Free off-site parking for Saturday night is available at the Equestrian Village facility across the street at 13500 South Shore Blvd., with a free shuttle to Wellington International. For more information on Saturday Night Lights, click here.

Wellington International is located conveniently at 3400 Equestrian Club Drive, Wellington, FL, 33414. For a map and detailed directions, please click here.

From October through April, our hunter/jumper shows run Wednesday through Sunday, starting at 8 a.m. and winding down in the late afternoon. We recommend arriving mid-to-late morning and staying through the afternoon to catch the height of our show jumping events and other classes. This allows time to browse our many shops and equestrian vendors and enjoy lunch in a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere. For information on our Saturday Night Lights show jumping during WEF, visit this page.

Horse shows at Wellington International are casual outdoor events. We recommend sensible walking shoes so that you are comfortable while exploring the showgrounds. If you’ve never been to a horse show before, we recommend visiting our Horse Show 101 guide to learn about some sights, competition and fun you’ll experience at Wellington International!

All of our events are rain or shine —some of the most exciting jumping competition is in the rain! We only cancel or postpone a competition if the weather is severe to the point of risking anyone’s safety. We will post on Facebook and our website for major events such as Saturday Night Lights if there are last-minute cancellations, postponements, or other changes.

Bring the whole family! Kids will enjoy walking the grounds and seeing hundreds of beautiful horses up close. Wellington International is the perfect place to begin your love affair with the equestrian sport! Our Saturday Night Lights events are also great for children and feature activities such as face painting, circus performers, dance contests, t-shirt tosses, petting zoos, pony rides, free riders on the Venetian carousel and lively music!

Come hungry! Our food vendors are open during our horse shows and boast a diverse range of affordable dining options. Whether you’ve planned a Saturday night out with the kids or lunch with friends, we have it all! See our food vendors here. 

One of our favorite nights of the week, Saturday Night Lights, is a Grand Prix equestrian event during the Winter Equestrian Festival featuring food, fun, live music, and the highest level of competitive show jumping. For more information, click here.

Unfortunately, no. We are a sporting competition venue and do not offer trail rides. However, on Saturday nights during the Winter Equestrian Festival season, we do offer pony rides for children. 

Wellington International and the National Polo Center offer separate equestrian disciplines and facilities.

Wellington International offers international hunter/jumper competitions and the National Polo Center offers polo competitions. Separate operating companies own each facility.

During the Winter Equestrian Festival season, we have more than 100 food and retail vendors onsite. To see the list, visit here.
