Saturday was a family fun filled day at the Hampton Classic.

News 12 sponsored the festivities for News 12 Kids Day, which featured a dance party, a magic show, pony rides and circus performers.

"That's the most rewarding thing in the world. Just bringing a smile to a kid's face, making people laugh, having fun. Hey, that's why we're here and come on down, we're having fun at the Hampton classic," said fire juggler Keith Leaf.

Sunday will feature the Classic's Grand Prix event. Contestants will not only vie for a $425,000 prize, but also a chance to be selected for the 2024 U.S. Olympic Equestrian team.
