The 12th annual Plantation Field International Horse Trials will be held Sept. 19 through 22. This prestigious event draws competitors from all over the world.
Spectators can get a close-up view of horses and riders, including some Olympic team members, competing in the sport of eventing, which has three phases: dressage (Thursday and Friday), cross-country (Saturday and Sunday morning), and show jumping (Saturday and Sunday).
One of the superstar participants will be Cochranville's Boyd Martin, who just won individual and team gold medals in eventing at the Pan American Games in Lima, Peru.
There will also be an antique car show, food trucks, a Victory Brewery beer garden, vendors, and a 5K Fun Run where dogs are encouraged to run with their owners. The event's beneficiary is the Chester County Food Bank.
The weekend schedule and tickets are available online. Admission is free on Thursday and Friday, but there's an admission fee on Saturday and Sunday.
Plantation Field is on Route 82, west of Unionville. The entrance for spectators is off Green Valley Road.
