First held in 1896, this became the nation's oldest and largest outdoor multibreed competition. Originally a modest one-day show intended to bring in superior carriage horses for Main Line landowners, it grew into an international event lasting over a week. In 1919, the concurrent Country Fair was added to benefit Bryn Mawr Hospital. In 2010, it was declared a US Equestrian Federation Heritage Competition, the organization's highest honor.
