The Agria Royal International Horse Show is an equestrian event for international competitors that is held annually at Hickstead Showground in West Sussex, UK.
The prestigious 6-day event is a celebratory festival of equestrianism with some serious competition in the form of one of showjumping's most sought-after titles. The Nations Cup takes place during the 6 days and is the feature class – with the Longines King George V Gold Cup and the Queen Elizabeth II Cup running at the same event as other classes – and is a team competition that sees the leading showjumping nations battle it out with the aim of conquering the huge, technical track.
