The AQHA World Championship Show debuted in 1974, 34 years after the Association’s inception in 1940. The inaugural AQHA World Show was hosted in Louisville, Kentucky, offering classes for open and amateur exhibitors. Interestingly enough, the American Quarter Horse Youth Association World Championship Show (or American Junior Quarter Horse Association as it was named back then) was first held in 1972. Two years later, in 1976, the AQHA World Show moved to State Fair Park in Oklahoma City, its home ever since.
Today, the Lucas Oil AQHA World Championship Show, the industry’s premier event, is the world’s largest and richest championship horse show with more than $2.3 million in prize money and awards. The event honors 99 world champions and 90 Adequan Level 2 champions.
