Exciting News – Pippa Funnell’s Pony Club Masterclass is Back!
One of the most-loved features of London International Horse Show is returning this December – and it’s one you won’t want to miss.
Three-time Olympian Pippa Funnell MBE is back to host her hugely popular Pony Club Masterclass on Monday 21 December. Alongside Pippa herself, the Masterclass will star four talented Members of The Pony Club, who will earn their place in the arena by selection at the 2026 edition of The Pony Club National Championships, which takes place from 14 – 22 August.
As the final session in the London International Masterclass Series, Pippa’s clinic promises plenty of insight, inspiration and entertainment. Drawing on her remarkable career, she’ll share expert tips on cross-country riding and eventing success, while championing the horse-first approach and positive horsemanship she’s renowned for.
Pippa made history as the first rider ever to complete the Rolex Grand Slam of Eventing and is a three-time Olympic medallist. Today, she’s just as passionate about developing the next generation, making this masterclass a real highlight for riders and spectators alike.
Looking ahead to the event, Pippa Funnell MBE said:
“I am hugely looking forward to rejoining the London International Masterclass line-up. The Pony Club is an institution very close to my heart, and it’s brilliant to see how these up-and-coming riders learn and develop over the course of our session! Best of luck to all competing at The Pony Club National Championships this August.”
Whether you’re a lifelong eventing fan or simply love seeing future stars take centre stage, make sure you catch Pippa’s Pony Club Masterclass in the New Horizon Plastics London Arena on 21 December. It’s set to be one of the standout moments of this year’s Show.
