EquiCalendar is a free calendar of UK equestrian competitions, clinics and training — find what's on near you, filter to the disciplines you ride, and save the dates that matter. No account, no sign-in, no ads. WHAT'S ON, NEAR YOU Browse upcoming dressage, show jumping, eventing, combined training and more from across the UK. Turn on location and EquiCalendar sorts events by distance and lets you set a radius — "within 30 miles" — so you only see what's actually reachable. FILTER TO YOUR LEVEL Powerful, tappable filters get you to the right events fast: • Discipline — dressage, show jumping, eventing, combined training and others • Series & pathway — amateur and grassroots series such as NSEA, Trailblazers and Pony Club • Level — unaffiliated, affiliated and elite, plus British Showjumping classes • Date — today, this weekend, this month, or pick a specific day • Distance — set a radius around your location PREPARE, COMPETE AND WATCH Three views for your season: Compete, for events you can enter; Prepare, for clinics, lessons, training days and camps to get you and your horse ready; and Watch, for shows and fixtures worth going along to as a spectator. EXPLORE THE MAP Open the Explore tab to see venues with upcoming events plotted on a map. Tap a venue to see how many events are coming up and which disciplines it runs, then jump straight to that venue's event list. Switch to Arena hire to find venues that hire out their arenas for schooling and practice. EVENT DETAILS THAT HELP YOU PLAN Every event has its own page with the date, venue, distance, class list and a map. From there you can: • Add the event to your calendar in one tap • Open the venue in Apple Maps for directions • Visit the organiser's website to enter or find schedules PLAN YOUR SEASON Star any event to save it to your Plan. Your Plan syncs across your own devices through iCloud and works offline too — handy at the yard when signal is patchy. SHARE YOUR PLAN WITH FAMILY Planning a season together? Share your Plan with the people who help — a parent and rider, or the whole family. Send one invite link and everyone sees and edits the same list, with changes kept in sync for each person automatically. One shared Plan, always up to date for everyone on it. PRIVATE BY DESIGN There's no EquiCalendar account to create and no login to browse. Your Plan syncs privately through your own iCloud — shared Plans stay within Apple's iCloud, never on our servers. EquiCalendar shows no adverts and includes no third-party tracking. Your location is used only to show and sort nearby events and is never stored against you; calendar access is write-only, purely to add events you choose. EquiCalendar pulls together fixtures from many UK organisers and venues into one place, so you can spend less time hunting across websites and more time riding.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: EquiCalendar at daily against FEI HorseApp's every 2 weeks. FEI HorseApp's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
