European Arabian Horse Championship
The European Arabian Horse Championship takes place on 24–25 October 2026 at Azelhof equestrian centre in Lier, Belgium. ECAHO classifies it as a Title Show.
ECAHO also confirms these dates and venue in its announcement for the judges workshop on 23 October. That workshop is a separate event; the championship begins the following day.
The provisional class programme starts at 09:30 on both days. Championships are scheduled on Sunday 25 October from 13:00 to 16:30 Belgian local time. Entry requires birth registration in a WAHO-recognised European studbook, with separate owner, breeder and qualification conditions.
Individual classes are provisionally scheduled on Saturday from 09:30 to 17:00, followed by a special freestyle evening from 20:00 to midnight. Individual classes resume on Sunday morning before the championships. These are the published provisional times in the venue's local time zone.
Each judge scores type, head and neck, body, legs and movement under the published rules; head and neck count as one criterion through their average. The top three yearlings in each class, and the top two older horses, qualify for their respective championships. Winners of this edition have not yet been declared.
