ABOUT THE FAIR
The Amadeus Horse Indoors is a premier trade fair for equestrian sports and riding equipment, held every December at Messe Salzburg. Offering a broad array of equestrian sports and culture, Amadeus Horse Indoors has gained an international reputation. Since its inception in 2006, the event has become a cornerstone of the equestrian scene, attracting numerous visitors and exhibitors from around the world each year.
The fair is organized by Amadeus Horse Indoors GmbH, a company with extensive experience and expertise in both event management and the equestrian sector. Amadeus Horse Indoors brings together a range of topics, including equestrian sports, riding gear, stable technology, health, nutrition, as well as lifestyle and leisure. Products and services across these areas are presented in a practical and engaging way—from riding apparel and equipment to stable technology and feed, as well as facilities for arenas and stables.
Exhibitors come from various industries such as sports equipment manufacturing, feed production, veterinary medicine, stable construction, and lifestyle. Amadeus Horse Indoors combines the trade fair with events, offering thrilling competitions alongside the exhibition, including international riding tournaments, vaulting competitions, and dog sports demonstrations. These competitions are among the highlights of the fair, making it especially appealing to professional athletes, riding clubs, and equestrian enthusiasts. Awards in different disciplines lend the event an exclusive, competitive edge.
The fair's connection to the city of Salzburg and to Austrian equestrian sports is especially noteworthy. Salzburg, as a cultural hub, provides an enchanting backdrop, underscoring the special significance of equestrianism in the region.
Visitors to the fair include equestrians, riding clubs, horse owners and enthusiasts, as well as industry professionals from the equestrian sports and related fields. The event also appeals to families and leisure visitors, who enjoy the diverse performances and the interactive design of the fair.
The Amadeus Horse Indoors takes place annually, and therefore for the fifteenth time previsibly in December 2026 in Salzburg.
