NEF live stream tickets released

Live stream tickets have now been released for the National Equine Forum (NEF).

This year, due to donations from supporters, livestream tickets are available for free on the event website.

Tim Brigstocke, NEF chairman, said: "Our intention is to share educational, important and topical information with as many members of the equestrian sector as possible, to support progress and cohesion within the sector.

"With this year's free live stream, together with our discounted live event afternoon tickets for educational establishments, we will be able to achieve our intention with even greater effect."

NEF is a not-for-profit event, which intends to explore the important issues in the equine sector. A limited number of in-person tickets are still available.

It will take place on Thursday, 6 March 2025 at IMechE in London.
