Show horses and ponies and show jumping have always featured prominently at the Iverk Show. And 2022 is no different.
In show jumping there are four arenas hosting 22 events. They range from the Nissan 1.35m Championship to Tiny Tots and local newcomers.
Arena 1 has four events for horses, Arena 2 has six events for 128 to 148 cm ponies jumping 90 cm plus, Arena 3 has the Sportsman events and Arena 4 is for ponies jumping 90 cm and under. The first competition in all Arenas start at 9am.
