The prestigious Spanish Riding School of Vienna has announced its upcoming UK tour with dates in October 2024 in London and Aberdeen.
Arriving in the UK adorned with dazzling white deerskin saddles, gold bridles, luxurious velvet saddle pads and iconic uniforms, eight riders and up to 26 horses will present the performances on the tour, showcasing perfectly synchronised routines to the sound of classical Viennese music.
Celebrating the Riding School’s return to the UK for the first time in eight years, the opening appearance of the world-famous snowy-white Lipizzans, loved by Queen Elizabeth II, will take place across three days on Friday 18th, Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th October 2024 at London’s OVO Arena Wembley.
Following this, the tour takes the stallions and their team to Aberdeen, marking the very first time the Spanish Riding School will perform in Scotland. Three performances will take place at P&J Live on 25th, 26th and 27th October.
The majestic performances by the Lipizzans will be hosted by the nation’s much-loved radio and TV presenter Nicki Chapman (BBC Radio 2 and Escape to the Country), with tickets available from ages three and up. This cultural experience promises to provide a fantastic day out for not only horse lovers but also families and groups seeking world-class entertainment, full of choreography, music and wonder.
Audiences attending this unforgettable experience will be mesmerised by famous choreographies including "All the Steps and Movements of the High School", "On the Long Rein" and the famous “School Quadrille”, also known as the “ballet of the eight white stallions”.
