Riding at Takapoto.

For safety reasons and animal welfare, please note you must have a stable or covered yard — horses are not allowed to tie to trucks or floats. You will either have paid for stables, or the horses can stay on the truck or float.

Our team work to keep the grounds — and in particular the sand arena — tidy and well groomed. This is challenging when manure is left. It holds up classes as our tractor drivers are having to jump in and out to collect it.

Please tidy up after your horse. Please muck out your stables at the end of the show — otherwise cleaning fees may apply.

Please contact us if you're interested in attending our events as a photographer: info@takapoto.co.nz

For entries and results, please use the Equipe app.

Due to our Resource Consent there are to be no truck parties. If you're involved in any truck gathering and noise gets out of control you may be asked to leave the grounds — and you may not be able to compete.

If you're on the One NZ (Vodafone) network you may experience connectivity issues once you arrive at Takapoto Estate. This issue only affects the One NZ network.

As much as we love dogs — as per previous years, this is a dog-free venue.

There is no live stream for training days. Beware of Facebook scams and always check our website for official information.

Under no circumstances can you bring your own alcohol into our licensed area (beyond the truck park). Alcohol will be confiscated as this jeopardises our license — and therefore the entire show.

If you have alcohol in your trucks, it must be consumed in the vehicle.

We run as a cashless venue — you'll only be able to pay for things using EFTPOS or a credit card.
