I love show jumping, the cost is low - many people get a coupon, for those that don't it's $10 a car for the basic entry. Prices go up from there. Basic seating on benches, some in the open, some with a roof. Food on the grounds is expensive. Lots to see each day of the Masters - Battle of... More

A fun place to spend the day, even if you are not a 'horse person'. The various events throughout the summer season are great for jumping competitions, people watching, food grazing and cultural enlightenment. The Christmas Craft market in November is also a great time, and well organized.

We took our kids here for a riding competition one Saturday. The indoor arena is great,with seats that are up close and personal. The event was free, too!

We really enjoyed visiting Spruce Meadows over the holidays. They have miles (literally) of Christmas lights strung over the acres of land and it's incredibly beautiful. We took drives through several times, and took time to visit the Christmas Market. Going to the market got us into the holiday spirit, gave us a chance to shop and discover local merchants... More

This is a world-class equestrian centre featuring major international competitions. There's usually something for everyone here and the horses are a sight to behold. You can go to many free events here too. Great for families or entertaining out-of-town guests. A real gem in this area. Don't miss it.
