The audacity, elegance and excellence of equestrian sports will be the strong points of this event which is already sold out, explains Virginie Couperie-Eiffel, President of the Paris Eiffel Jumping. Highlighting the horse, this venue will be observed closely by all the official specialists from the grandstands, two months away from the decision by the CIO for the attribution of the Summer 2024 Olympic Games.

The rendezvous of epicurians, under the sign of the horse

During three days of competition, the « French Way of Life » and the art of hosting will be showcased with a series of animations. Craftsmanship, contemporary art and fashion will display the red white and blue colours in the VIP Village, while gastronomy will be ensured by chefs Alain Ducasse and Frédéric Vardon. This will for sure satisfy epicureans between two very exciting events !
