Dublin Horse Show
A day at the RDS can combine international showjumping, showing classes, shopping and time around the rings. The Dublin Horse Show offers different ways to visit, depending on whether your priority is a particular competition or the wider show.

4 to 8 August 2027
The official site announces 4 to 8 August 2027. Its detailed ticket and competition pages still include 2026 information, so those prices and daily schedules are not reused here for 2027.
Sources checked 24 September 2026Choose your ringside priorities
The show combines high-level jumping with a broader equestrian programme and visitor attractions. If one competition is the reason for your trip, start with its confirmed day before choosing the rest of the visit. Otherwise, leave time to move between rings and explore beyond the main arena.

Admission and a reserved seat are different
The published ticket information distinguishes general admission from products that include reserved arena seating. Read the package contents carefully if you want to watch a particular session from a seat. The page currently refers to 2026, so a historic price or seat plan should not be assumed to apply to the 2027 show.

Ladies Day needs its own dated programme
Ladies Day searches often mix Dublin with Galway and other race meetings. At the Horse Show, check the RDS programme and the specific best-dressed event details. Do not use a Galway Races ticket or a previous year’s fashion-event date to plan this visit.
