The Show Jumping Hall of Fame and Museum at
Busch Gardens in Tampa, FL, was established
in 1987 and formally opened in 1989. It was
organized to promote the sport of show jumping
and to immortalize the legends of the men, women
and horses who have made great contributions
to the sport. The Show Jumping Hall of Fame
also conducts the Show Jumping Hall of Fame
Jumper Classic Series, held under Grand Prix
rules and specifications.
The Series holds classes at nearly one hundred
horse shows across the country. It is designed
to give amateur-owner and junior riders an opportunity
to compete at higher levels and serves as a
proving ground for many riders who aspire to
someday represent the United States in international
competition.

Hall of Fame and its Jumper Classic Series,
