The Big D Charity Horse Show began as a single-day equine event in 1971. By 1974, the organization became a 501(c) (3) non-profit and earned the respect and adoration of horse people in North Texas and beyond. The show now features four full days of premiere competition at the nationally recognized Will Rogers Memorial Center in Fort Worth, Texas. With classes for American Saddlebreds, Morgans, Hackney Ponies, Road Horses, and our vast Academy and Open Breed divisions, there is truly something for everyone at Big D.
