GENEVA, Feb. 18, 2016–Dressage is returning to the CHI Geneva in December after a break of 15 years from one of the world’s premier indoor shows.

Organizers of the CHI that includes the two other Olympic disciplines of jumping and eventing and the World Dressage Masters announced Thursday that all three Big Tour competitions–Grand Prix, Special and Freestyle–will be on the schedule for the Dec. 8-11 event.

The Geneva show celebrates its 90th birthday this year at the Palexpo which hosted the dressage World Cup from 1997 through 2000 before the sport was dropped from the schedule.

Geneva with Aachen, Germany and Spruce Meadows in Canada is one of the founding Grand Slam of Jumping events.
