Kilmacanogue Horse Show

Advance note for your Diaries is the annual Kilmacanogue Horse Show will take place in Enniskerry on July 22 this year. This year the show is scheduled for the Saturday of the Bray Air Show weekend, which will make a wonderful family weekend of events, The Kilmacanogue Horse Show on Saturday and Bray Air Show on Sunday.

The annual Kilmacanogue Horse Show attracts many visitors and well over 500 competitors (horses, ponies, dogs, sheep and their owners of all ages) every year. It is a favourite day out for families where children are guaranteed to be captivated for hours. Many children state that the Kilmacanogue Horse Show is the highlight of their summer as they experience all the hard work and attention-to-detail involved in being ‘at their best’ for competition.

Besides the ponies, horses and sheep there is plenty to keep everyone busy including the very popular dog show, pony rides, ‘guess the weight of the lamb’ and art competitions. There are delicious locally grown raspberries to enjoy with ice-cream, craft stalls to browse and find bargains at, food and trade stands including demonstrations on health and safety and a farrier at work.
