It is the largest and longest-running equestrian competition in the world. WEF began to attract the equestrian community after the 1970s. Today, competitors and residents can access over 57 miles of different trails surrounding the equestrian facility. Each of the 12 weeks is considered its own horse show, with separate competitions, as well as competitions that run throughout the festival. The 2015 WEF awarded over $8.2 million in prize money.

The Palm Beach International Equestrian Center, which hosts the WEF, is a 160-acre (65 ha) venue in Wellington.
