After celebrating its twenty-fifth anniversary last December HIPPOLOGICA is due to strategically reposition itself. The capital’s number one indoor equestrian event will now take place on the last four days of the International Green Week Berlin 2018 (19 – 28 Jan.). Thus, next year HIPPOLOGICA will run from 25 to 28 January 2018.
The successful combination of a show, sports and shopping opportunities will remain a firm fixture on the calendar of equestrian events. Riders, fans of equestrianism and horse breeders from the local region will also be able to enjoy culinary delights and get all the information the Green Week has to offer.
As in previous years, the focus of HIPPOLOGICA will be on the various tournaments taking place, which visitors to the busiest trade fair in Berlin (2017: approx. 400,000) will now also be able to attend. Once again, public attractions will include the fascinating HIPPOLOGICA MASTERS programme, featuring five individual disciplines, namely horse jumping, dressage, handicap dressage, vaulting and driving. The successful partnership between the organisers of HIPPOLOGICA and the Berlin-Brandenburg Regional Equestrian Association (LPBB) is set to continue.
As the world’s leading exhibition for agriculture, the food industry and horticulture, in terms of topics the International Green Week Berlin is ideally suited to be the venue for HIPPOLOGICA. ‘Equestrianism’ perfectly complements the ‘Experience Nature’ segment at the Green Week, which also includes ‘Hunting’ and ‘Fishing’. What is more, the Green Week will continue the decades-long tradition of an indoor riding tournament, which used to be held parallel with the trade fair in the Deutschlandhalle.
