2026/27 Standardbred Showing Calendar
Below is the Standardbred showing season for 2026/27.
A show marked Confirmed has told us it is running a Standardbred class this season. To be confirmed means we have the date but are still waiting to hear about classes, so check the schedule before you enter. Any show that tells us it is not running a Standardbred ring comes off this list.
This page reads straight from our own show records, so it is up to date the moment we are.
The 2026/27 show season
31 shows confirmed, October through February. Click any show for its venue, entry contact and schedule on the RAS website.
Before you enter: check the show schedule for a Standardbred class or ring, and make sure your horse’s Showing Passport is current. Entries close well before the day at most shows.
