Find your level.How to Qualify
Qualifying Period: August 1, 2023 - July 31, 2024
Earn Qualifying Points
Earn the required number of qualifying points for the desired class during the 2024 AQHA World and Select World qualifying period, August 1, 2023, to July 31, 2024, and pay the standard entry fee. This qualifying achievement will be added to the horse’s permanent AQHA record.
View qualifying point requirements.
Participate in Four AQHA-Approved Events
Participate in four AQHA-approved events during the 2024 AQHA World and Select World qualifying period (August 1, 2023, to July 31, 2024) and pay the standard entry fee, regardless of the number of points earned. Participation credit is earned by horse on a class-by-class basis for the open division and by horse/exhibitor combination for both the amateur and Select amateur divisions. AQHA event is defined as all judge numbers for a particular show or circuit. For example, the Arizona Sun Circuit is considered one event, even though it includes eight sets of points. This qualifying method will not be added to the horse’s permanent AQHA record. Note: exhibitors and horses need only show to one judge or set of judges at an event to earn the participation requirement.
Qualify as an Affiliate (State/Provincial) Invitee
For each affiliate, the top 5 amateur and Select exhibitors/horses, plus ties, in each class which do not qualify nationally will receive an invitation to the respective world show class. This is also to be expanded to include the top 5, plus ties, in each open class.
Buy-In World Show Entry
If the requirements outlined above are not met, an American Quarter Horse can still be entered in the show for a higher entry fee. Open Level 3 classes will require a $7,500 nomination fee per class, while amateur and Select amateur Level 3 classes will require a $5,000 nomination fee per class. Open Level 2 classes will require a $5,000 nomination fee per class, while amateur and Select amateur Level 2 classes will require a $3,500 nomination fee per class. A portion of this buy-in fee will be retained by AQHA.
Direct Qualifying Invitations: Barrel Racing
The top 10 1D American Quarter Horses in the following barrel racing events will be invited to compete at the 2024 Nutrena AQHA World Show in junior or senior classes, dependent on the age of the horse at qualification.
