About

The Drum Horse has come thundering out of the history books and into reality across the world. First used by the Queen of England in her ceremonial Band of the Life Guards, the Drum Horse carries the heavy kettle drums during parades and other pageantry.

Today, the Drum Horse is proving to be the ultimate heavy riding horse. A talented athlete, the Drum Horse can excel in many disciplines. Browse through this site and see what all the excitement is about...

The International Drum Horse Association was founded in 2006, originally named the American Drum Horse Association. In 2012, the name changed as the registry included Drum Horses from countries all over the world. The IDHA is the sole registry dedicated to promoting and preserving the Drum Horse world wide. The IDHA is working to bring this horse from type to breed.
