The Virginia Horse Center
Home to the Heart of Virginia Alpaca Show and The Dominion Alpaca Show, this centrally located equine and livestock facility has plenty to offer. Our show will be in the East Complex's Reel Arena and Barn 8. Once you arrive, all stalling and the show are indoors. Stalling is large, 12 x 12, which easily houses 4 adult alpacas. You will need to provide stall bedding. NOTE: sod, sand, sawdust and newspaper are not permitted. Bedding can be purchased and delivered to your stall at the Stable Office.
