The Media Night is traditionally the social highlight. Exciting guests stroll over one of the most famous red carpets on the sports scene and are traditionally welcomed by the ALRV President Stefanie Peters and co-host Prof. Dr. Hermann Bühlbecker, owner of the Lambertz group. The gala evening is being staged parallel to the CHIO Aachen Opening Ceremony on the evening of June 28^th.

A number of celebrities are awaited at the Aachen Soers over the days of the CHIO. From political circles the German Interior Minister, Nancy Faeser, has confirmed her attendance. Ursula van der Leyen, President of the Commission is coming from Brussels, the State Premier Hendrik Wüst from Düsseldorf and the head of the Green Party, Mona Neubaur, will also be attending.
