We are just 100 days out from the 7th installment of “An Event Like No Other!” All are invited to take in this unique showcase of the sport of three day eventing, February 28th & March 1st, at Bruce’s Field in Aiken, SC. The $100,000 Conceal Grand-Prix Eventing Showcase at Bruce’s Field, presented by Taylor Harris Insurance (GPE), promises two action-packed days of equestrian sport.
Sponsorship Opportunities, Vendor Agreements, and Press Applications are all available online here. VIP and General Admission tickets will go on sale Dec. 1st, 2024.
The event is a condensed eventing competition, with riders contesting three phases (Dressage, Show Jumping, Cross Country) over the course of two days, all with the same horse. This “triathlon” of equestrian sport is the ultimate test of partnership, training, and fitness, and serves as a popular stop on the early-season tour of many top international riders and Olympic hopefuls.
To date the event has worked with 32 national and local non-profit organizations and awarded over $60,000 to our charitable partners. The competition has attracted riders from 9 different countries, including 13 Olympians and international super stars such as William Fox-Pitt & Austin O’Connor, and awarded over $350,000 in prize money to the competitors. In 2021 all four of the horse and rider combinations that went on to travel to Tokyo for the Olympics competed at the showcase. All 5 of the 2022 FEI World Championships US Squad have made an appearance at the Aiken Showcase. Just this past year in 2024, we saw GPE champions, Boyd Martin, Liz Halliday, and Will Coleman all named to the Paris Olympic Team.
The GPE has become the highlight of Aiken’s winter equestrian season. It is able to showcase this fabulous sport in the heart of historic Aiken and generate enthusiasm among equestrian and non-equestrians alike. The GPE is the fulcrum that shines a bright light on this community by attracting many of the world’s best competitors.
All VIP and General Admission tickets go on sale, online Dec 1st, 2024. We can’t wait to see you for #GPE2025!
