A 5 Star event (CCI5*-L) is the pinnacle of the sport of eventing. It consists of the most advanced form of competition as it pertains to the skill level executed in the field of dressage, as well as, tougher terrain and obstacles in both cross country and stadium jumping. There are only seven 5 Star events in the world, with two being in the United States.

The third day of competition on Saturday is the cross country test, where riders jump up to 45 obstacles over almost 4 miles of varying terrain. The final day of competition on Sunday is show jumping, where riders jump over fragile obstacles in the main arena.
