What we do

The Company of Horsemen have over 40 years experience in the entertainment business, providing a full and professional service to the Film and TV industry. The Company of Horsemen have a string of highly talented horses who will not only charge into battle or drive sedately, but will lie down, rear, kneel, smile, cross their legs and much more, just for the asking!

Live Entertainment for Main Arena Attractions

The Company of Horsemen brought together a multi-talented group of people, who are behind much of the Action seen on the movie screen — teamed them with their highly trained horses — included Action, which first saw light of day on the film set — and the result is stunning Live Entertainment!

When you book the Company of Horsemen, you are booking the peace of mind that they have been creating and delivering live main arena attraction for over 20 years. Working with the biggest of County Shows to the smallest of local Galas, professionalism and listening to what your venue really needs is what this team do best.

With so many years under the belts they have trained many horses to be part of the team. Seen many other teams come and go and have solutions to any problems or obstacles that face them on the day – be it rain, mud, a PA system failing or uninvited guests into the arena! They are there to ensure your main arena booking goes smoothly.

They know that a show organiser is not only forced to look for value for money with the current economy, but value with an act that leaves the crowd with fantastic memories of their time spent at your show – so the one date they will make sure is in their diary for next year is yours! The Company of Horsemen team are on the end of the phone from the initial enquiry through to the day of your event – anything you need to make this the best show you have put together.
