Dressage
About
The 2026 dressage competition calendar, sponsored by Hampton Green Farms at World Equestrian Center – Ocala, will showcase 10 shows, highlighted by seven Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI)-rated competitions.
Alongside these FEI events, each show will host national US Equestrian (USEF)/United States Dressage Federation (USDF) classes, offering qualifying opportunities for the Great American Insurance Group/USDF Region 3 Dressage Championships.
Competitions in August onwards will also serve as qualifiers for the 2027 FEI North American Youth Championships and various other high-performance events.
A major highlight of the season, the 2026 USEF Grand Prix Dressage National Championship, will take place May 13–17, 2026, in the Grand Arena at WEC – Ocala. Qualified combinations will have the chance to compete for the coveted title of 2026 USEF Dressage Grand Prix Champion in a world-class setting.
