SILVERADO PRESENTS
the double dan's horsemanship masterclass
Our most requested Star Presenters ever, The Double Dan’s are here together to present their highly anticipated Silverado Horsemanship Masterclass. Set to cover the art of horsemanship including the principle of effective communication between horses and humans, this masterclass will help riders turn a stiff, heavy and unwilling horse into a soft, supple and cooperative partner.
*Only accessible via Super Ticket or Thursday Greg Grant Saddlery Ticket
family entertainment feature
with tom curtain
If you thought Tom Curtain’s national tour was all about guitars and cowboy hats, think again! We’ve got working dogs, working horses and working goats. Yep, goats! Tom has somehow managed to turn these mischievous creatures into the unsung heroes. A performance that puts your two left feet to shame, and all led by a pack of dogs that have better moves than your Uncle Bob at a wedding.

the way of the horse final
Fan favourite with a cult following of its own, the 2024 TWOTH champion will be crowned. Across the previous three days, some of the best trainers in Australia have been working with un-handled horses as they take us on a journey from wild to willing. The final will see whose training methods have prevailed as they demonstrate the progress they’ve made with their horse.
