Dressage-News

Oct. 4, 2023

The 29 international dressage events scheduled for the United States in 2024 equals the record for this century set in 2012 with all but one of next year’s events qualifiers for the Paris Olympics and other championships such as the 2024 and 2025 World Cup Finals.

More than half of the total will be staged in Florida–seven at Wellington’s Global Dressage Festival as they have been for the past decade; one in neighboring West Palm Beach; five including, the first CDI4* at Ocala’s World Equestrian Center, and two CDI4* competitions at Terra Nova near Sarasota on the Gulf Coast.

A major resurgence in the number of events in Southern California is on the schedule with three CDIs at both Thermal and Del Mar and two in Temecula.

With the Paris Olympics set for the end of July, most qualifying events of CDI3* or higher are centered in Florida and California.

The 2024 lineup in the U.S. is the most of any single nation. However, with 22 in Germany, 10 in France including the Olympics, nine in the Netherlands, eight in Belgium, for example, ease of travel in most of continental Europe provides more options.
