Dublin Horse Show Catalogues

Dublin Horse Show Catalogues

The first National Horse Show, jointly organised by the Royal Agricultural Society of Ireland and the RDS, was held in 1864 in the RDS Agricultural Hall, at Leinster House. In 1868 the RDS assumed sole responsibility for the management of the Horse Show, and in 1881 held its first Show at Ballsbridge. Today over 1500 horses take part in the Dublin Horse Show continuing its reputation as one of the world’s leading equestrian events.

This collection contains the Horse Show catalogues from 1868 to 2019. The catalogues includes the prizes, riders and results of each Horse Show. See the Dublin Horse Show Images collection for posters, advertisements and photographs of the Horse Show.
