Katara International Arabian Horse Festival, organised by the Cultural Village Foundation (Katara), the Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club (QREC) and the Qatar Equestrian Federation (QEF), is based on supporting Qatar’s long-standing equestrian heritage with a view to promoting it worldwide.

Its judges possess high qualifications and expertise as they are very carefully selected through ECAHO to ensure the integrity of competition, maintaining the structure of the Show and promoting the Show.
