2025 Summer Series
Entries and weekly/circuit stall reservations are now open for the 2025 Summer Series at World Equestrian Center – Ocala. This year’s series runs from June 4 to August 10 and features an expanded indoor schedule to keep competitors cool. The lineup includes 10 weeks of US Equestrian (USEF) sanctioned competition and, new for 2025, nine weeks of Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) competition.
Entries & Weekly/Circuit Stall Reservations
Enhancing the indoor experience, Indoor Arena 5 now features upgraded GGT footing, bringing the total number of air-conditioned indoor arenas to six. Additionally, the climate-controlled barns provide a comfortable environment for both horses and athletes throughout the series.
The nine weeks of international competition will take place in the WEC Grand Arena, with convenient air-conditioned indoor schooling available in Indoor Arena 3.
Hunter divisions will also see exciting additions in 2025. Week V introduces a $40,000 USHJA International Hunter Derby in the WEC Stadium, offering Platinum Performance/USHJA International Hunter Derby Championship riders a valuable opportunity to prepare in a similar atmosphere.
Returning in Week II (June 17-22), the South Standlee/USHJA National Hunter Derby Regional Championship will once again take center stage in the WEC Stadium. With Open, Junior, and Amateur divisions each awarding $12,500 in prize money, this premier event sets the stage for competitors ahead of the USHJA Green Hunter Incentive Championship in August.
