In a grand spectacle of equestrian finesse, Hermès, the French luxury powerhouse, is gearing up for the 14th edition of the Saut Hermès—an annual show jumping gala held at the illustrious Grand Palais since its inception in 2010.
Scheduled for March 16 to 18, 2024, this event promises an extraordinary gathering of over 75 riders representing 20 countries, along with more than 130 magnificent horses converging at the transformed Grand Palais Éphémère. The centerpiece of the event will be the fiercely contested CSI 5 category, featuring 55 elite riders, a classification endorsed by both the French Equestrian Federation (FFE) and the International Equestrian Federation (FEI).
Adding to the excitement, the Saut Hermès will spotlight 20 promising talents in equestrianism, aged under 25, navigating challenging courses envisioned by the acclaimed Santiago Varela Ullastres.
Beyond the riveting competitions, Hermès invites the public to delve into the world of saddle craftsmanship through live demonstrations. An equestrian bookshop will offer a literary journey into the art of horsemanship, while family-friendly activities will immerse attendees in the enchanting realm of horses.
The Champ-de-Mars will come alive with pony rides and grooming activities for the younger audience, complemented by an original equestrian show in collaboration with ‘I Could Never Be A Dancer.’
As a global beacon of saddle craftsmanship, Hermès takes pride in uniting the worldwide equestrian community, paying homage to its inaugural customer—the horse.
Anticipation builds for the global equestrian spotlight in the upcoming year, with the approaching Olympics and a celebration of equine prowess. The equestrian events at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, scheduled from July 27 to August 6 at the Palace of Versailles, are set to showcase the talents of 200 riders across three disciplines.
Join Hermès in celebrating the pinnacle of equestrian excellence at the 14th Saut Hermès—a convergence of craftsmanship and competition in a symphony of horsemanship.
