Now, in it’s 43rd year, the Idaho State Draft Horse and Mule International is one of the largest draft horse and mule shows in the West, drawing spectators and exhibitors alike from several states and Canada. 4 action packed performances led by an all – volunteer show committee, this event is sustained with the support of volunteers who donate countless hours of their own time and resources every year.
By being a Vendor at the Idaho State Draft Horse and Mule Show is more than selling your product or company name: it’s about being associated with a 43-year tradition and vital piece of our American Heritage in the state of Idaho.
Because of you, our vendors, this area has been able to celebrate a part of our American Heritage —- the Gentle Giants who tilled the soil and pulled our freight.
Note the change for our shows: The show will start Thursday 5:00pm with several classes plus we are bringing back the Pulling Contest. Friday and Saturday during the day we will be having a Cowboy Dressage Clinic (we are still working on the time) with the show starting at 5:00pm. The fairgrounds are planning a concert on Friday night after the performance. Sunday the show will start at 12:30pm.
