Each year the Paint Horse Association organises or sponsors events to promote the Paint Horse breed in Australia.

The main event is the annual National championship Show now held at the new AELEC facility at Tamworth. Other events include Youth camps, approved shows, Ride Australia, attendance at breed promotion events and fundraising activities.

Every two years the PHAA organises for an Australian Youth team to attend the Paint Horse Youth World Show at Fort Worth in Texas. Spots on the team are keenly sought and hotly contested by youth members in the two years leading up to the show. The next team will go to Texas in 2012.
