National Convention

British Dressage and Equestrian Management Agency are delighted to confirm that dual Olympic Champion Charlotte Dujardin will be headlining the 2023 Convention, sponsored by LeMieux and NAF, sharing the principles that have led her to the top of the podium, holding every world record in the sport in the process. Charlotte will also be joined by a host of leading British Dressage figures, including Carl Hester, Gareth Hughes, and Laura Tomlinson, with others to be announced in the coming months.

The last decade has seen a transformation for the sport in Great Britain, with a medal winning generation of riders and horses achieving the most success ever witnessed in the history of dressage in the UK. We want this year’s Convention to be a celebration of these achievements, delving into what has led to this success, and how we can use these training methods in our own training at home or in the arena with our horses. 

British Dressage and Equestrian Management Agency are also delighted to confirm that equestrian superstar Valegro will be also coming to the event to be a part of this special occasion. Charlotte’s partnership with Valegro delivered double individual gold in London 2012 and Rio 2016 and his legacy has been cemented into sporting history.

Equestrian Management Agency aims to put the 25th anniversary of British Dressage at the heart of this year’s Convention, whilst adding some new initiatives to the two-day event, making it entertaining and informative – and an essential date for your diary!
