Don't miss the triennial renewal of this historic tradition of horsemanship and elegance. Authentic 19th century coaches drawn by teams of four horses participate in a series of daily drives and demonstrations through the streets of Newport and the grounds of the Newport Mansions.
There will be a free coaching demonstration on Saturday morning, August 22, on the grounds of The Elms. The public is invited to see the coaches up close, learn about their history, and enjoy the spirited horn-blowing competition.
On Saturday evening, enjoy an elegant black-tie dinner dance, with proceeds benefiting the Preservation Society of Newport County.
Dinner dance ticket prices:
Individual: $ 400 Patron: $ 800 Benefactor: $1200
Patron and Benefactor supporters will be noted in the event program.
Advance reservations are required. Please call (401) 847-1000 ext. 120 for availability.
