LONGINES CSI BASEL

The first major European competition of the year, the Longines CSI Basel welcomes the world's best show jumping riders at the beginning of January. In all, some 90 competitors and 280 horses will take to the track to compete in the 17 prize-winning events at the Longines CSI Basel, where nine of the eleven international competitions count towards the world rankings. Over 200,000 spectators in the last twenty years. It's one of the must-sees in the field, and the quality of the event, the hospitality and the ancillary services are well worth the detour.
