About The Venue

The Palos Verdes Peninsula is a unique equestrian community that is located 30 miles from Downtown Los Angeles. Many local equestrians train and compete in many different disciplines, from dressage to team roping, jumping to ranch sorting. They can be trail riding in the morning while enjoying views of Los Angeles or Catalina, then be surfing 15 minutes later.
