The famous horse show held at the Bugac equestrian farm is the main reason visitors make the trip out to the puszta. Csikós herdsmen in traditional embroidered costumes demonstrate skills that have been practised on the Great Hungarian Plain for centuries: trick riding, whip cracking, herding with dogs, and the extraordinary five-horse post in which a rider stands astride the two rearmost horses of a five-horse team at full gallop.
The show runs daily from spring through autumn, typically in the early afternoon. After the performance, visitors can explore the adjacent small farmstead museum displaying traditional equipment and crafts, and eat at the csárda restaurant on site, which serves hearty puszta food — goose dishes, goulash, and fresh bread.
