The stunning parkland of Bolesworth Castle in Cheshire sets the stage for the Al Shira’aa Bolesworth International over the 26th – 29th of June and 2nd – 5th of July. 

Across two summer weekends, the event showcases world-class showjumping and exceptional automotive design, from timeless classics to modern supercars; a lifestyle event defined by relaxed elegance.  

Uniquely uniting the equestrian and automotive worlds, the event is a true celebration of the Art of Horsepower.  

This year’s show will once again deliver world-class CSI3* & CSI4* competition, bringing together elite riders, exceptional horses and thrilling sport at the highest level. From precision and power in the arena to an unforgettable atmosphere beyond it, the Al Shira’aa Bolesworth International promises excellence at every turn.

We extend our sincere thanks to Al Shira’aa for their continued support, which enables Bolesworth to welcome the very best of the sport and we are also honoured to see the return of Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Hazza bin Zayed Al Nahyan as Honorary President of the Show. Together, this partnership represents a shared vision for excellence, horsemanship and unforgettable sporting moments – and we look forward to welcoming riders, horses and spectators from around the world to what promises to be an exceptional edition of the show.

As well as world-class showjumping, Bolesworth presents to you a different kind of Horsepower. We believe horsepower is more than a measure of speed or strength, it is an art form. One of the major additions for 2026 is The Drivers Lawn, hosting two distinct themed weekends, each exploring a different vision of horsepower.

Our Classics Weekend featuring the inaugural Bolesworth Concours celebrates the timeless beauty of classic cars.

Our Supercar Weekend celebrates the pinnacle of performance with an extraordinary collection of supercars and hypercars.

New for 2026, The Style Quarter is Bolesworth International’s destination for premium lifestyle brands, style and celebration. At the heart of the Style Quarter is the Champagne Terrace – a stylish space to enjoy a front-row view of the world-class showjumping in the International Arena while enjoying a glass of fizz with friends.

In the Premium Shopping Village you can enjoy a hand-selected collection of high-end equestrian and lifestyle brands, chosen for their quality, design and attention to detail. Explore technical and luxury equestrian wear, performance-led equipment and beautifully designed lifestyle brands spanning fashion, accessories, home and gifting.

While the competition remains firmly world-class, families can also look forward to iconic favourites such as the Ben Atkinson displays, our Super Trucks zone and the ever-popular Shetland Pony Grand National. A dedicated Family Zone offers space for younger visitors to explore, play and recharge – ensuring a relaxed and memorable day for every generation.

As summer 2026 approaches, Bolesworth invites guests to reimagine what horsepower means when it is elevated, curated and consciously celebrated. 

This is Bolesworth International, reimagined. 

This is horsepower in all its forms. 

This is The Art of Horsepower.
