Spanish Riding School
Wembley Arena - 16-19 November, NEC Birmingham 23-26 November
The art of equestrianism, in perfect time to music...
Five years after their last sold-out tour, the Spanish Riding School of Vienna return to the UK in November 2006 to stun audiences with their emotionally charged equine ballet.
For only eight stunning performances at Wembley and the NEC, this is a rare and unique opportunity to see classical dressage at the highest level and in its purest form, from the graceful Pas de Deux to the spectacular Levades and Caprioles.
Founded in 1572 the Spanish Riding School is regarded as the pinnacle of the classical art of riding and their performances represent the epitome of harmony between horse and rider. The precise and graceful manoeuvres of the white Lipizzaner stallions and their elegant riders date back to Ancient Greece, and the tradition and skills of the world's oldest riding school promise to make for an unforgettable experience.
