Each year, the Tennessee Quarter Horse Association gathers to celebrate the accomplishments, friendships, and shared passion that define our community. This winter, we invite you to be part of an unforgettable weekend at the 2026 TQHA Awards Banquet & Convention, taking place January 30 – February 1, 2026, in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.

This annual gathering brings together members, trainers, exhibitors, and supporters from across the state for a weekend of learning, networking, and recognition — honoring the achievements of the past year and looking ahead to what’s next for TQHA.

A Weekend for the TQHA Community

The convention begins on Friday, January 30, with the Board of Directors meeting at the Holiday Inn Murfreesboro, followed by a relaxed welcome social for early arrivals.

Saturday, January 31, will be filled with opportunities to connect and collaborate, including Youth, Amateur, and General Membership meetings, vendor exhibits, and networking sessions. The evening’s highlight will be the TQHA Awards Banquet at The View at Fountains, an elegant celebration honoring our 2025 year-end champions and recognizing outstanding members across all divisions.

The weekend concludes on Sunday, February 1, with the final Board of Directors meeting at the Holiday Inn Murfreesboro.
