2027 European Show Seminar heads to Spain
Make plans now to join us in Spain for the 2027 European Show Seminar, scheduled for January 22–24, 2027. Presented by the American Paint Horse Association in partnership with the American Quarter Horse Association, the National Reining Horse Association, the National Reined Cow Horse Association and the National Snaffle Bit Association, this annual event brings together Europe’s Western horse community for education, collaboration and connection at the start of the show season.
The 2027 seminar will feature specialized educational tracks for judges, exhibitors, show managers, club leaders, youth and reining/cow horse enthusiasts. Expert-led sessions will focus on professional development, industry updates and practical tools participants can take home and apply immediately.
Attendees will also enjoy expanded networking and social opportunities designed to strengthen relationships across Europe’s Western horse community, along with leadership workshops, regional meetings and interactive learning sessions.
The European Show Seminar continues its tradition of rotating locations across Europe. France will host the seminar January 21–23, 2028, and Germany hosts January 19–21, 2029. Judge applicant testing and recertification will also be offered at the 2029 event.
Additional details for the 2027 seminar, including the host city, hotel and registration information, will be announced later this year. For more information, please contact APHA International and plan to join us in Spain in 2027.
