Due to high demand:
Additional date for “Horse & Symphony” on June 27th, 2025
“Hola España” - this is the motto of the partner country Spain at the CHIO Aachen 2025. The Kingdom on the Iberian Peninsula will play a major role at this year's World Equestrian Festival. Be it at the Opening Ceremony, in the CHIO Aachen Village or already at the beginning of the event. The partner country will also be one of the main themes of the concert “Horse & Symphony”.
The CHIO Aachen fans are already looking forward to the traditional, this time spanish-inspired interplay between the Aachen Symphony Orchestra and a unique horse show, the demand for tickets is high. “To such an extent that we are glad to accommodate our visitors by offering an additional date,” Birgit Rosenberg, Member of the Managing Board, stated about the breath-taking concert that kicks off Germany’s biggest sports event, which will now take place on not just one, but two evenings (June 27 and 28).
Since there are only a few individual tickets left for Saturday, the organisers are offering an additional date on Friday as a further option to experience the very special atmosphere of “Horse & Symphony”. Because when the evening sun goes down behind the stand, the Deutsche Bank Stadium becomes magical and emotional. Conducted by Christopher Ward, the General Music Director of the City of Aachen, the first note of the extremely popular event that promises to be exceptional again in 2025, will ring out at 8.30 p.m. on both evenings. Birgit Rosenberg doesn’t want to reveal too much about the individual show elements yet, but she does guarantee: “It will certainly be worth a visit!”
Tickets for the additional concert are available online at www.chioaachen.de/tickets, from the hotline on +49-(0)241-917-1111 and from the offices at the showgrounds of the CHIO Aachen.
