Following the incredible success of previous years, the Horses Inside Out Equine Anatomy Exhibition will be even bigger and better in 2026, our 20th Anniversary year!

 

Running for three weeks, this unique exhibition offers a fascinating journey beneath the surface of the horse, blending science, art, and practical equestrian knowledge.

Whether you’re a rider, trainer, student, or equine professional, this is your opportunity to:

  • Explore new exhibits and anatomical art like you've never seen before

  • Understand how anatomy and biomechanics impact posture, performance, and injury prevention

  • Discover insights into common issues affecting the back, teeth, sacroiliac area, hooves, and more

  • Visualise the structures beneath your horse's skin to enhance your riding and care

 

Come on your own or with friends. Whether you stay for an hour or a full day, you’ll leave with a deeper understanding of the horse and how your knowledge can make a difference.

We can’t wait to see you at Wavendon Grange in August!
