It is also one of the most challenging on the world circuit. Since 2006 and the creation of the Longines Global Champions Tour, the Jumping International de Monte-Carlo has established itself as an iconic meeting on the showjumping calendar, with the biggest names in the sport regularly taking part.

The Jumping is both a show-jumping competition and a race against the clock, with no less than 15 events on offer to riders and the audience, with amateur categories during the day and top riders in the evening. The champions compete for the Prince of Monaco’s Prize, one of the finest stages of the Longines Global Champions Tour.

Watched over by the super-yachts and nestled in the former Formula 1 pit lane, this event is truly unique in the world of show jumping and draws crowds from all around the world.

The best riders in the world and their horses meet in the Principality every year for a unique sporting spectacle which takes show-jumping to the level of a work of art.
