Because our motorhome is 40' we have to park sideways so cannot see the movies out of the windshield as you would in a car, but we put out our lawn chairs and raised dog bed outside the rig and listen on our FM radio. We do tie the pups off to a post in front of us because others with dogs often park or walk nearby and ours are a bit too friendly.

We accidentally lined up incorrectly and got a whole lecture how to read the signs. After paying $6 each and being charged an automatic $10 food voucher, we parked. The ladies working the concession stand are so rude. There's a sign that basically says "don't line up if you don't know what you want." The popcorn had been popped earlier so it wasn't warm and way too salty. The soda was flat, and the mozzarella sticks were again, salty. Apple Pay doesn't work! Movie started at 8pm and it was still daylight outside. The screen was still dark that no one could actually see the movie until an hour later. The instructions were to turn off the lights and engine, but the people around us had their engines on so the exhaust kept flowing through the lot. I wish there was an attendant that enforced the rules. Overall, it's an experience but they need to do better. I guess this is what $22 gets us.

The seating was comfortable. As this is used as a space for all sorts of events such as conferences and weddings, seating is not stadium seating, but the chairs were really nice, and they have ushers to help with rows. The restroom facilities are clean and ample. This might be the first concert I've been to with enough restrooms that there were no lines! Lots of self parking outside, but you might have to walk a bit.

Their first ever carnival began with a simple donated pony ride in 1949. You know they have to be doing something right! It has gotten so large with 10,000 in attendance that it has been expanded to 4 days. Single ride tickets are available but it's best to purchase a wristband so you can ride all the rides as many times as you'd like for one designated day. That's a whole lot of fun! What's best is if you purchase the wristband in advance, there's a substantial discount. Riding all day means you get to eat your all your meals there. There are local restaurants there that you can purchase a meal ticket in advance from and just pick up your dinner when you're ready. Of course the fried food stands are always the most popular as well as the cheesesteaks. The raffle for prizes are always the annual highlight. The sponsers go all out in donating these large items to the school. Trips, cruises and cars are always some of the favorite big ticket items. A lot of funds are generated from solely the raffles. It's a win-win for everyone as it's an inexpensive day out with the proceeds going to a great cause.

UPDATE (July 2026): I also posted this review on a wedding review website. Approximately 18 months…read morelater, The World Equestrian Center disputed that review and asked the platform to remove it. I provided documentation supporting the factual statements in my review, yet it was still removed based on a technical eligibility determination, not because my experience was found to be untrue. Based on the platform's published review policies and the timeline of my case, I believe the review was removed in error. In my opinion, this is another example of WEC choosing to challenge customer criticism rather than take accountability. It only reinforces the lack of professionalism we experienced throughout our wedding planning process. I stand by every word of my original review and hope other couples will carefully consider our experience when choosing a wedding venue. - original review- Brides and grooms, beware. My fiancé and I signed a contract with the World Equestrian Center in December 2023 for our wedding ceremony in the Chapel and our reception on the Stirrups Terrace. We were thrilled, believing we had secured our dream wedding. However, just 41 days before our big day, I discovered on WEC's website that they were hosting a Grand Prix event in the main arena and selling tickets for a dining experience on the Stirrups Terrace where our dream reception was to take place. Learning about this significant change online, rather than through our WEC representative, highlights their unprofessionalism--unacceptable for a venue of this caliber. When we confronted WEC, they admitted to being aware of the conflict but insisted we relocate our reception to another area. All that was offered to my fiancé and I for this massive inconvenience was a 40 x 40 tent for 74 guests. Since we were unwilling to move our reception to a new location, WEC cancelled our contract with 37 days to go before our wedding date. They also refused to mass cancel our room block so my fiancé and I had to contact every guest that booked at the hotel to call and cancel. This breach of contract has utterly ruined our wedding day. It feels like a blatant bait-and-switch, driven by greed; they clearly prioritize making money over honoring commitments to their clients. They will toss aside your wedding contract if a better offer comes along. I strongly advise prospective couples to consider other options before trusting the World Equestrian Center with such an important occasion.
