Mustang Magic Live Auction

Take Home a Living Legend

The Mustang Magic Live Auction is your chance to own a living legend and change the life of a Mustang. Each horse has been worked with for roughly 100 days, giving bidders the unique opportunity to take home a Mustang that has already begun its gentling and training journey. The auction will take place January 24, 2026, Saturday night immediately following the Top 10 Finals at the Will Rogers Memorial Center in Fort Worth, TX. Tickets are only required for the Finals; the auction is open to approved bidders and attendees.

This is more than a sale, it’s a chance to provide a forever home to a Mustang that has demonstrated its spirit, versatility, and potential. By participating, you’re supporting Mustang Champions’ mission to transition BLM Mustangs into private care, showcasing their abilities, and giving them the opportunity to thrive outside of holding. Every bid helps create a new beginning for these incredible horses.

Accepted payment methods: cash, check, or credit card (credit cards include an additional fee; cash and check encouraged).
