$536 million in 13 weeks. And 63% of it goes to the horses.
Every winter, the equestrian world moves to Wellington, Florida. The 2025 Winter Equestrian Festival generated more economic impact than the Miami Formula 1 Grand Prix. Two hours north, Ocala’s horse industry drives $4.3 billion a year and 1 in 5 local jobs.
Most of that money flows through services: grooms, trainers, farriers, vets, braiders, shippers, stalls. Over $40,000 per horse, per season.
And most of it is still booked through Facebook groups and WhatsApp.
That’s why we’re bringing EquiLink to Wellington and Ocala in January 2027. 🐴
