FEI World Equestrian Games

About

The FEI World Equestrian Games (WEG) are a premier international event showcasing the world's best equestrian disciplines. Established in 1990, these games are held every four years, featuring eight main disciplines: dressage, driving, endurance, eventing, jumping, para dressage, reining, and vaulting. The WEG serves as a platform for athletes to compete in these disciplines, often acting as an Olympic qualifying event for several of them. The event brings together top riders and horses from around the globe, providing a unique opportunity for spectators to witness the pinnacle of equestrian sport. The WEG has been hosted in various locations worldwide, including Stockholm, Rome, Aachen, Lexington, and Tryon. Each edition has its unique features, with some events hosting all disciplines at a single venue, while others have been split across multiple locations due to logistical challenges. The games attract significant international attention, with thousands of athletes and horses participating over two weeks. The WEG has evolved to include para dressage, reflecting the growth and inclusivity of equestrian sports. It remains a major highlight in the global sporting calendar, celebrating the skill, partnership, and excellence of horse and rider.
