The final leg of polo's Triple Corona, played at the Campo Argentino de Polo in Palermo, right in the middle of Buenos Aires. It is the only tournament that routinely fields the highest-handicap teams in the world, and the December final packs a stadium in a way that feels far closer to a football crowd than to the champagne lawns of European polo.

How to attend
Tickets are sold through the Asociacion Argentina de Polo at aapolo.com and Argentine ticketing platforms once fixtures are announced. Early-round matches are cheap, often under USD 30, and seating is effectively open. The final runs from roughly USD 80 into the hundreds for covered seats. It is a public event, but the best boxes are held by clubs and sponsors, so go through a hospitality operator if you want the shaded side of the ground.
Insider tip
The Campo Argentino de Polo sits in the middle of the city - walk in from Palermo Chico rather than driving, because parking anywhere near the ground on final day is genuinely impossible.
