CHIO AACHEN
World Equestrian Festival


June 24th - July 3rd, 2022

It is going to be colourful, entertaining and exciting, but it is also going to sound great too: The Opening Ceremony of the CHIO Aachen on the evening of June 28th, holds a spectacular programme and a fantastic singer in store – the focus will attention on the youth.

Olympic team champion Dorothee Schneider opens her doors. The riding champion takes us on an exclusive stable tour of her dream stable. Of course, we also visited her favorites.

The CHIO Aachen is mourning Professor Dr. Arno Gego. The former board member of the Aachen-Laurensberger Rennverein e.V. passed away today at the age of 84.

When outstanding live music meets a breath-taking show, then it is time for the “Horse and Symphony” at the CHIO Aachen. This year, the popular format is going to be imaginative, colourful and spectacular: Because on the evenings of June 24th and 25th, 2022, the guests will be invited “to walk right in” to the Deutsche Bank Stadium to experience the fabulous world of the circus.

What does it actually look like behind the scenes during a show? We were allowed to be mice in the stable area at "The Dutch Masters - Indoor Brabant".

The CHIO Aachen CAMPUS offers attractive training and education offers for the equestrian sport all year round – at the highest level and on the probably most famous equestrian site in the world.

As a replacement for the Youth Olympic Games, the FEI Youth Equestrian Games are being staged during the CHIO Aachen 2022 (June 24th to July 3rd, 2022). 30 young talents from 30 nations will be travelling to Aachen to compete against the best of the best.

As of Friday, the show-jumper Martin Fuchs will be entering the ring in the next leg of the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping. We spoke to the Swiss show-jumper about his idols, his successful grey horses, Clooney and Leone Jei and of course about the CHIO Aachen.
