Show jumping staged in a temporary arena built on the quayside of Port Hercule, with superyachts moored metres from the ring and the Rock of Monaco rising behind. It is the most photogenic stop on the Longines Global Champions Tour and one of the hardest to get into, with capacity limited by the port itself. Riders and owners treat it as the highlight of the European summer.

How to attend

Tickets and hospitality are sold through the official Global Champions site, typically opening a few months before the event, with grandstand seats from roughly 60 euros and the Champions Club and hospitality tables running into four figures per person. Capacity is genuinely small, so the good seats go on the first day of sale. Free views are available from the public quayside and the terraces above the port, which is how a large part of Monaco watches it.

Insider tip

Much of the ringside is visible from the public walkways above Port Hercule, so watch a class for free first and then decide whether hospitality is worth the outlay.
