Created in 1926, the CHI Geneva is one of the world’s most prestigious equestrian competitions. Each year, Palexpo welcomes the very best riders and drivers of the planet on the biggest indoor arena (5,400m2).
Awarded eight times the world's best equestrian competition, the CHI Geneva is part of the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping alongside the CHIO Aachen (GER), the Spruce Meadows "Masters" of Calgary (CAN) and the Dutch Masters of 's-Hertogenbosch (NED).
The Concours Hippique International de Genève has hosted two finals of the Show Jumping World Cup (1996 and 2010) as well as thirteen Rolex IJRC Top 10 Finals. The Champions Challenge© presented by Rolex is also one of the highlights of the event, as are the Indoor Cross Country, the Driving World Cup and the Dressage which made its comeback at CHI Geneva in 2016 after 15 years of absence.
Each year, 700 highly motivated volunteers bring the event to life and welcome 42,000 spectators over the four days.
