The World Equestrian Center – Ocala will host two additional international dressage competitions in 2022. Following a very successful week in Ocala that saw more than 220 national and international competitors and well-received Fédération Equestre International (FEI) classes held in the Grand Arena, the new CDI3* shows will be held on September 15-18 and November 17-20.

The 2022 series of dressage shows, which now includes three CDIs along with 11 USEF/USDF-rated shows, is presented by Hampton Green Farm and Discover Dressage.

Ocala More Shows, Tryon Cancelled

The 2022 CDI Ocala on 14 - 17 April was well attended by mainly the Floridian based dressage riders, who just wrapped up their season competing at the Global Dressage Festival in Wellington.

Instead of continuing their show campaign in Tryon, these riders now found an option closer to home in Ocala.

This led to the cancellation of the CDI Tryon on 22 - 24 April 2022 as there was a lack of entries, the show organizer confirmed to Eurodressage.

Ocala Expanding

“We are very pleased to welcome back international dressage riders to World Equestrian Center in Ocala this fall,” said WEC CEO Roby Roberts. “Exhibitor response to our CDI competitions has been encouraging. Last week showed that dressage riders enjoy and want to support more international sport at WEC.”

Kim Van Kampen of Hampton Green Farm remarked, “It is very exciting to have more international dressage competition planned for 2022 at World Equestrian Center – Ocala. We want to help support and grow the sport of dressage in the U.S. and believe that these shows will bring dressage to a wider audience and give riders more opportunities to experience FEI competition.”
