The inaugural Maryland 5 Star at Fair Hill will be available to fans thanks to daily broadcasts on Maryland Public Television (MPT) and livestreams on USEF Network and Horse & Country.
The Maryland 5 Star at Fair Hill, one of only two 5-star level events in the United States and seven worldwide, is set for October 14-17 at the newly-constructed Fair Hill Special Event Zone in Elkton, Maryland.
In addition to the CCI5*-L, the event will also feature a CCI3*-L, which is serving as the USEF CCI3*-L Eventing National Championship, and The Dutta Corp. USEA Young Event Horse East Coast Championships Presented by Dubarry of Ireland. The four days of Eventing competition will feature Dressage (Thu-Fri), Cross-Country (Sat) showcasing the new Ian Stark designed courses, and Show Jumping (Sun).
The entire CCI5*, including Wednesday’s horse inspection, will be available via livestream through USEF Network in North America and through Horse & Country outside North America. USEF Network will also provide exclusive coverage of the CCI3*. A link to the livestream will be available on the event’s website via the USEF Network player. Additionally, press conferences will be livestreamed through the event’s Facebook page.
MPT’s Maryland 5 Star coverage will also be livestreamed to the network’s regional audience at mpt.org/anywhere/live-stream-mpt/.
“We understand that not everyone will be able to join us in person for this event, but we are thrilled to be able to bring it live to the people of Maryland and Eventing fans around the world,” said Jeff Newman, President & CEO of the Fair Hill Organizing Committee. “We’re glad everyone will be able to see all the action and excitement of this year’s inaugural event.”
