Welcome to the J.D. Massey Classic Horse Show.  The show is located in the T. Ed Garrison Livestock Arena at Clemson University.  The Garrison Arena has become one of the southeast’s premier locations for equestrian events.  The inaugural event in 1991 for Garrison Arena was the J.D. Massey Classic Horse Show, one of the top American Saddlebred shows in the United States.  It continues as one of the arena's most popular attractions each spring.

The enclosed arena provides spacious exhibit space and seating for more than 3,000 spectators.  A name-a-seat campaign is under way which will provide comfortable theater-type seating.

The covered warm-up arena, which is connected to the main arena, has 45,000 square feet under one roof.  Two additional warm-up rings provide ample areas for schooling horses.  440 permanent stalls are available.

An additional covered arena, part of an expanded cattle complex, provides indoor space for more than 150 temporary stalls, and is equipped with bathroom facilities.
