The Virginia Horse Center stands at the forefront of Virginia’s $1.2B equine economy. Founded in 1986 to promote all disciplines of equestrian sport, its 600 acres of picturesque grounds hold a 4,000-seat coliseum, eight barns capable of accommodating 1,200 horses, 19 show rings including two large indoor arenas, cross-country and combined carriage driving courses, campgrounds, and full catering and café services. The VHC also hosts many non-equine events including dog shows, agriculture programs and community gatherings.
The Virginia Horse Center Foundation (VHCF) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization which owns and operates the Virginia Horse Center. The Foundation is proud to be a part of the Rockbridge community, an asset to the state’s equine economy, a resource to the East Atlantic competition circuit, and equestrian competitors throughout eastern United States.
Committed to the well-being and safety of rider and horse, the Virginia Horse Center Foundation supports the facility that serves thousands of horses, riders and spectators annually. The VHCF manages over 100 events each year, most free and open to the public. The Foundation’s mission is to enrich lives with programs focused on recreation, education, and preservation.
