OKLAHOMA CITY, OK—JANUARY 14, 2026— The stage is set for one of Quarter Horse racing’s most anticipated nights, as the AQHA Racing Champions Ceremony takes center stage Wednesday evening at Heritage Place in Oklahoma City. The ceremony will be livestreamed worldwide.

The ceremony will honor the best of the sport as the 2025 AQHA Racing Champions and overall World Champion are officially announced.

Festivities at Heritage Place begin earlier in the evening with the annual Pre-Sale Party from 5–6 p.m. The reception will feature live music by Steve Crosley, along with food and drinks, and provides attendees the opportunity to preview Winter Mixed Sale entries on site ahead of the auction’s opening sessions.
