Historic showjumping at the Hickstead Derby
The Al Shira’aa Hickstead Derby Meeting, 19-22 June
Last year, history was made at Hickstead when William Funnell won the Al Shira’aa Derby for a record fifth time. Until then, he had been one of an elite band of showjumpers to win the class four times, alongside legendary riders Eddie Macken, Harvey Smith, and brothers John and Michael Whitaker.
The International Arena has been home to so many of the sport’s greatest moments, but the Al Shira’aa Hickstead Derby Meeting features much more than international showjumping.
There’s plenty to enjoy during a day out at Hickstead, from browsing the extensive shopping village, sampling delicious food from the many street food stands, or visiting the fun fair. Even better, children under 15 can attend free of charge from Thursday to Saturday. Advance discounts apply, with adult general admission prices starting from less than £20, plus there is free admission for everyone on Thursday 19 June.
