Horse auction hero banner

The 2026 horse auction calendar is shaping up as a showcase of diversity and technology, offering buyers and sellers a range of opportunities from traditional barn sales to fully online performance events. Leading the pack, Cavan Equestrian & Performance Horse & Pony Sales is preparing a major auction that will feature horses and ponies across classes from 70 cm to 1.30 m, catering to riders of every skill level and providing a one‑stop shop with the on‑site Cladem Equi Store for gear and supplies. Meanwhile, Platinum Horse Sales is launching its Zerlotti production sale, an online performance horse auction that promises a transparent bidding environment and a global reach, reflecting the industry’s shift toward digital platforms.

In the Pacific Northwest, Mt. Hope Auction’s Event Series Horse Sale is set to open early in the morning with draft horses, followed by Standardbreds and riding horses, illustrating a continued demand for both work‑type and sport horse disciplines. Further north, the Tulare County Stockyard’s Dinuba horse sale will run at midday, offering a focused selection for regional buyers and reinforcing the importance of local market hubs.

Kentucky’s Hoover’s Auction & Real Estate adds another high‑profile event with its 16th Annual Horse Sale, a staple that draws national attention and highlights the enduring appeal of well‑bred performance and pleasure horses. Complementing these specialized sales, the National Western Stock Show will include a dedicated horse auction segment, integrating equine offerings into a broader agricultural showcase and underscoring the horse’s role in western heritage.

Across these venues, several trends emerge: a blend of in‑person and online formats, an emphasis on varied disciplines—from draft and Standardbred to sport and pleasure horses—and a concerted effort to provide comprehensive services for both buyers and sellers. Collectively, the upcoming auctions signal a robust market, driven by technology, regional expertise, and a growing appetite for quality horse stock across the country.
