By Taylor Neuman, RiseNews, SouthFloridaReporter.com, Jan. 3, 2016 – Wellington, Florida, a western suburb of West Palm Beach, is known as a quiet city seven months of the year.
But starting in mid November, Wellington becomes a hot spot for the equestrian world.
People from all over the world come for the unique Winter Equestrian Festival (WEF) and other equestrian happenings.
WEF is known for being the longest running horse show in the world; it lasts for a staggering 12 weeks.
Wellington’s equestrian events also cater to people of all ages and levels from little children to riders well into their 80’s and from amateurs to professionals.
These equestrian events include hunters, polo matches and children’s pony classes which you would be hard pressed to find anywhere in Europe.
“WEF means home, but it also means WEF,” Arianna Anglesey a WEF participant told RISE NEWS. “We travel for 7 months out of the year all throughout the U.S., Canada and Europe, which is an awesome experience. Come November and we all head homeward bound and I know for the next 5 months I get to be with my family and continue working which is something I love.”
