Other equestrian events after the Olympics...

[tasel]

I'm going to Blenheim (which hopefully won't be cancelled), and also will be attending CHIO Aachen in Germany next year. The latter one is in June 2013, and my goodness, the Germans plan in advance. I used to tell OH that equestrian people are terribly well organised (even tickets in the UK, sell out quickly). But it's a whole different ballgame in Germany! Loads of blocks full already for the dressage to music evening, and when I got the tickets, I couldn't even find hotels nearby with available rooms (and the ones with rooms were expensive, i.e. 100s of pounds per night!!! So will be travelling from another town a few miles away.

What other events will you be going to? I used to love to go to the The British Open Show Jumping Championships, but obviously that no longer exists...

No one else going to any events?

I've got tickets for Burghley, thats probably my favourite event and its pretty local to me so not too far to travel!
We normally go to Your Horse Live but I'll be away at university this year so probably wont be able to make it...

Yes, Burghley is my favourite too. Fantastic shopping

Off to Paralympic dressage at end of this month. Have always gone with my daughter to Badminton and Olympia. Won't be going this year as Badminton was cancelled and can't take daughter out of school for Olympia as she's now in her GCSE years. Hope you enjoy Burghley.
