Horse Haven

Discover horse breeds found throughout Alberta, and learn which activities these equine athletes are really good at.

There’ll be 16 breeds on display at Horse Haven Stables, located at the north end of the Agriculture Barns, in an open western setting from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.

Itching to own a horse? Horse Sense 101, presented daily, tells you all you need to know.

These light horse breeds can also be seen in action daily in demonstrations in the Big Top and Northern Lights Arena.

Kids will enjoy the activity book showcasing the breeds, and can take them home for colouring fun!
