Why be a Trade Fair Merchant

Thousands of spectators from around the globe converge on the Kentucky Horse Park to witness world-class athletes compete in the Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event and the Kentucky Reining Cup in Lexington Kentucky, the Horse Capital of the World.


Spectators arrive eagerly anticipating the shopper’s paradise they have grown to expect from the Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event International Trade Fair and  the Kentucky Reining Cup Trade Fair. Our customers are always on the hunt for the saddle of their dreams, the breeches that fit just right, the supplement that ‘gets it done’, the one bit they can’t find anywhere else, that perfect necklace for the weekend or the gorgeous painting they just can’t live without; they look for it at our Trade Fairs. With attendance averaging 62,000 over the last five years, merchants of all varieties are sure to find spectators in pursuit of their products.
