World-class equestrian sport. Olympic history. Summer in the Adirondacks.

For more than fifty years, riders, trainers and families have made the trip to the North Elba Show Grounds each summer. Two premier events run back to back each June and July — the Lake Placid Horse Shows and the I Love NY Horse Show — bringing FEI CSI3* international show jumping together with top-level hunter, jumper and equitation competition.

More than a competition, it is a celebration of place: run by a 501(c)(3) that supports the local community and the tourism economy around it.
