Excitement awaits at the Tallinn International Horse Show

 

The popular annual Tallinn International Horse Show will take place this weekend (October 4 to 6), at the Unibet Arena in Tallinn. The event has a packed programme that caters to riders of various levels and disciplines. The show will feature a mix of national classes and international competitions, including CSI2*-W, CSIU25, CSIYH1*, and CDI-W events.

The first day, Friday, October 4, kicks off early with the national class 105/110 cm, open to pony riders, followed by the Prix de Estonian Ponikarikas. The day will continue with classes designed for children, U25 riders, and young horses, culminating in the much-anticipated CDI Grand Prix, Prix de Ideal Auto, later that evening. Highlights of the day include a show by Anne-Gaëlle Bertho and an opening ceremony featuring a small ponies show that showcases the talents of young equestrians.

On Saturday, October 5 the programme intensifies with the Grand Prix Freestyle, part of the FEI World Cup. The day’s schedule also includes classes for both young horses and U25 riders.

The final day, Sunday, will showcase the skills of U25 riders once again, along with classes for young horses and an exciting Grand Prix 150 cm FEI World Cup. The event will conclude with a closing ceremony, celebrating the achievements of all the participants and the excitement generated throughout the weekend.
