Queensland Festival of Dressage - Larger than life

As the winner of the 2010 and the 2014 Equestrian Queensland Event of the Year Award, this year’s Horseland QLD Festival of Dressage has mighty expectations to live up to. Now in its 9th year of bringing you a unique and spectacular day full of Dressage education, training and entertainment, we guarantee this year will be the biggest event on Australia’s equestrian event calendar…definitely a day which will be Larger than Life!

This year, the Main Arena will feature our Festival Master Class series with our guest international coach, Bjarne Elefsen. Presented by Pryde’s Easifeed, Bjarne’s Master Classes will demonstrate the training for starting the dressage horse, through to developing collection and the work for progressing towards FEI and Grand Prix.
In addition to Bjarne, the Main Arena will showcase 12 ridden educational and entertainment demonstrations with live commentary from some of Australia’s leading equine professionals including Alistair McLean and his much-awaited clinic on ‘Racetrack to Riding Horse’.
With esteemed professionals presenting their expertise for you this year, such as Mattea Davidson, Jenny Gehrke, Gary Lung, and Rebecca Ashton - just to name a few - the programme literally bursts from the seams with demonstrations on Tips for Riding the Hot Horse, How to Improve your Marks, How to Improve your Sitting Trot, and Tips for Training the Flying Changes.
