Welcome to Windsor Castle
FEI European Jumping & Dressage Championships
25th - 30th August 2009

Welcome to the website for the Windsor European Dressage and Jumping Championships 2009. These championships will be the most important equestrian event to be held in the UK this decade. It is the first time that The European Jumping Championships and the European Dressage Championships have ever been held at the same venue - and what a venue it is.

The private grounds of Windsor Castle are being developed into a fantastic equestrian competition venue, which will have two all - weather surfaces and expect to see over 80,000 visitors over the course of the 6 days of competition.

Plans are already well underway so make sure you keep up to date with developments by registering for our enewsletter - you will receive all the latest news and have the option of priority booking when tickets go on sale next year.
