Millstreet is celebrating 50 years of hosting equestrian events this year. It is a monumental occasion of which we are very proud. In that time, we have welcomed to Co. Cork a myriad of International Horse Shows, World Cup Qualifying Events, multiple FEI European Championships for Ponies, Juniors and Young Riders in Jumping, Eventing and Dressage, as well as numerous National Horse Shows and Charity Shows for horses and ponies. Since developing the Drishane cross country track in 2014, we have proceeded to host a range of integral International Eventing fixtures including test events and qualifiers for the Olympic Games, the Irish leg of the FEI Eventing Nations Cup on two occasions and the only Irish stage of the acclaimed Event Rider Masters series. 

Irish horses and riders continue to reach new levels on the world stages of show-jumping, eventing and horse-racing. Over the past half a century, Millstreet has maintained its foundation role in the development of young horses, riders, officials and the ongoing ability of the sport to reach new audiences through public attendance, broadcast and live-streaming. A growing list of Olympians, Flat/National Hunt Jockeys and European Championship medallists have benefitted from competition experience in the Green Glens Arena while young horse development competitions such as the ‘Young Irelander (3yo),’ ‘National Discovery (4yo)’ and ‘Boomerang (6/7yo)’ are renowned for the graduates that progress through the ranks each year.
