Odysseo by Cavalia will be one of Calgary’s biggest travel motivators in 2014,” says Tourism Calgary CEO Cindy Ady. “This larger-than-life theatrical production will take advantage of the infrastructure investment at Canada Olympic Park from Cavalia’s first visit in 2011 and again bring significant economic benefit with this new production through increased regional visitation and extended stays by production crews and performers.”

Organized by the Columbia Basin Herald, the Expo offers something for every equine enthusiast, including great clinics, seminar presenters, vendors, demonstrations and so much more! and It’s all FREE to attend!! With no admission or parking fees, this is the event that the Equine Community of the Inland Northwest won’t want to miss!
The Inland NW Expo includes educational seminars, clinics, and hands-on demonstration areas plus a wide variety of great vendor booths that highlight; equine fashion, supplements, products, information on horse groups, equine equipment and other supplies. It features a photo contest that gives amateur shutterbugs a chance to win prizes from our panel of expert judges or an online people’s choice award. You will also enjoy areas like the Buckaroos Corral, (with activities for children), splendid food concessions, and a relaxing lounge area. If that isn’t enough to pique your interest, how about hourly Door Prizes and Four Thousand (4000) Gift Bags given away at the 2012 Inland NW Horse Expo.
Clinics and Seminars As any horse owner will tell you, “They never stop learning.” The Inland NW Horse Expo has a very strong component of Equine educational sessions in the Arenas and on the Seminar Stage. You will have the opportunity to learn from world class Clinicians like Richard Shrake and Joan Curtin. These types of demonstrations, information, and insights would cost you hundreds of dollars to learn in private training sessions. Our seminars will include Equine Health, Judging Secrets, Back Country Riding and more. Whether you stay for them all or come for just one or two, you will walk away better informed and prepared to be a responsible and knowledgeable horse owner.
Vendors The Trade Show floor for Inland NW Horse Expo will feature a variety of booths from major suppliers to the equine community. Products and services ranging from training DVD’s, equine fashion, health supplements, equipment supplies, barn manufactures and much, much more. Whether you come to buy, research or just look, there’s plenty to see, so plan on plenty of time to see it all.
Equipment Demonstration Area Most Expos have equipment vendors, but how many give you a place to actually see how a drag, tractor or other equipment works? Our Equipment Demonstration area is designed to give you the direct experience you just can’t get with static display or video presentation. Work some dirt, drive a tractor and experience how equipment performs.
Horse Tech Zone There are a lot of great new and unique products being marketed for today’s equine community. The Horse Tech Zone brings together a showcase of the latest in equine technology. This zone includes demonstration space to allow manufacturers to present their latest developments, concepts, and services directly to the horse community.
Buckaroos Corral The love of horses comes early to many kids, but they may not have the attention span to stay through everything you want to see. No problem, bring them the Buckaroos Corral. We’ll prepare fun activities to entertain them with games, books and their own Free Coloring Book made just for the Expo. You’ll have a chance to explore more areas of the Expo knowing your children are safe and having FUN!
