A friendly and family event
The Longines Paris Eiffel Jumping is also the opportunity to step into the world of horses through various activities to discover with your family. The access to the "Village" settled on the Champ de Mars specifically for the event will be entirely free and will allow younger visitors to take part to activities around horses (first ride on ponies, training track...) while older visitors will meet champions and visit the temporary library offering an overview of French literary production on the theme of horses. Equestrian arts will also be honored with shows performed by the prestigious French Republican Guard and by Jean-François Pignon, wild horses trainer. A magical event near the Green Hotels Paris, to enjoy with your family or as a couple.
