For four days, Schönbrunn belongs to the horses
From September 24 to 27, 2026, Schönbrunn Palace will serve as the stage for international equestrian sports. At the Longines Global Champions Tour Vienna, show jumping, dressage, and the Lipizzaner horses will take center stage against an imperial backdrop. The “Krone” is giving away tickets and VIP experiences for the equestrian event of the year!
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen For four days, the Longines Global Champions Tour Vienna will be all about horses and the many facets of equestrian sports. The event kicks off on Thursday with true Viennese fan favorites: the Lipizzaner horses of the Spanish Riding School will open the event in the Ehrenhof. Afterward, the spotlight shifts to the horses and riders who are usually seen at the world’s biggest competition venues. Important points are at stake in the 5* show jumping, and for the first time, international dressage brings another Olympic discipline to Schönbrunn. Isabell Werth, the most successful dressage rider in history, is scheduled to compete.
But equestrian sports at Schönbrunn aren’t just meant to thrill die-hard fans. Around 400 schoolchildren are invited to Children’s Day on Thursday, and for many of them, this will be their first chance to get up close to the horses. Pony rides, working equitation, and numerous other activities will make the weekend an experience for families as well.
“It’s important to me that we reach a wide variety of people with this event. Not every child has the opportunity to interact with horses. That’s why, for me, this weekend isn’t just about elite sports—it’s also about the chance to get to know horses, to be up close with them, and perhaps to feel that excitement for the very first time,” says co-organizer Sonja Klima.
