Del Mar Fairgrounds.
The Del Mar International Horse Show runs from October 12th through the 30th and takes place at our own Del Mar Fairgrounds. Known for its unbelievable atmosphere and exciting competition, the Del Mar International Horse Show is part of the prestigious Longines FEI World Cup™ Jumping North American League, hosting one of only seven World Cup™ Qualifiers on the West Coast of North America.
During the run of the Horse Show, Shelter to Soldier will hold their Fourth Annual Benefit on Friday, October 21 during the Del Mar Charity 1.50M! The fundraiser will include refreshments, a full bar, raffles, live and silent auctions and all proceeds will benefit the charity’s continuous efforts to match a newly trained assistance dog with a veteran, at no cost to the veteran. Visit www.sheltertosoldier.org for more information and to purchase tickets for this incredible show!
The Charity Woof Cup opens the evening on Saturday, October 22 and benefits multiple charities, including: Shelter to Soldier, Compton JR. Posse, Sam Thompson Memorial Foundation for Disabled Jockeys and The EQUUS Foundation.
