Box Office is now Open!
The Al Shira’aa Hickstead Derby Meeting (21-25 June 2023), one of the most popular events in the equestrian calendar.
Around 45,000 spectators are expected to flock to the West Sussex showground in June, with visitor numbers peaking during the famous Al Shira'aa Derby on the Sunday afternoon. The Derby course is fearsomely tricky, with iconic obstacles such as the Derby Bank, the Devil’s D**e and the double of water ditches guaranteeing plenty of thrills and spills for spectators.
But as well as the eight busy rings of equestrian action, there is a lot more to see and do during the Al Shira’aa Hickstead Derby Meeting. There are more than 100 stands in the Shopping Village, giving shoppers the chance to browse many of the leading countryside brands. This year, there is free general admission on the Thursday of the show, to encourage people to come along to experience the fabulous shopping for themselves. Then there’s the wide range of bars and eateries, from the street food vans, or one of the many bars and restaurants, all the way up to fine dining in one of the hospitality options.
