Arabian Nights Dinner Theater Road Show

What better way to celebrate our breed's heritage than by bringing back the most recognized Arabian of all time-Walter Farley's Black Stallion. Friday evening, October 20th, the Arabian Nights Dinner Theater Road Show (Kissimmee, FL), courtesy of the Black Stallion Literacy Project, brings a fairy tale on horseback to life with its world famous production, culminating with an appearance by The Black Stallion^®.

The Louisville community is especially invited to this special family evening, so be sure to buy your separate evening ticket in advance.


U.S. Nationals Barn Party Series

Everyone needs a little party. How about eight of them? The popular U.S. Nationals Barn Party Series invites you into the barn areas of the show for food, drinks, open barns and horse presentations by eight of the industry's most notable barns. Two barns host parties back to back at 4pm and 5pm each day, the last four days of the show. It's an enjoyable way to see the "other side" of U.S. Nationals and meet some of the best Arabian horses in the world. Click on the barn host links in the above schedule and take some time to see the world-class quality of these barns.

What's more, attendees will receive a FREE General Admission ticket voucher to the special Friday evening session featuring popular U.S. Nationals classes and the "Arabian Nights Dinner Theater Road Show" (seats not guaranteed in a sold-out situation).


U.S. Nationals Fashion Show & Wine Tasting

"Equine Lifestyle on Runway." See the latest fashions in all your favorite riding disciplines, plus non-riding fashionables as well. This event is sure to become a tradition, and will be held on stage in the Shopping Expo, and accompanied appropriately by a complimentary California wine tasting directly preceding the show.
