For lovers of pomp and pageant, and lovers of all types of horses, there's only one place in Miami-Dade County to go - the Equestrian Center at Tropical Park.
Hosting more than 36 shows a year, the Equestrian Center is where registered Arabians, hunter/jumpers, Western style, Paso Finos, and other breeds come to strut their stuff and pick up valuable show ribbons and trophies.
The beauty, grace and courage of a horse show are complimented by the stately center, which has two clay show rings, one for performance and one for warm-ups. It also has two grass courses, plus seating for approximately 1,000 persons. At the heart of the equestrian facility is a promenade and a state-of-the-art show arena covered by a 200' x 275' standing steel roof.
A full-service equestrian facility, Tropical Park has 267 stalls available for rent to competitors, recreational vehicle hookups, restroom facilities and concession stands.
The center also hosts full-size rodeos, bringing in portable bleachers for up to 2,500 spectators. The center is also available to rent for special events such as concerts, dog shows and parties. The center also hosts full-size rodeos, bringing in portable bleachers for up to 7,500 spectators.
