The Club de Campo Villa de Madrid becomes the epicenter of international equestrian sports this weekend as it hosts a new stage of the Longines Global Champions Tour.

The competition, which brings together the most prominent specialists from around the world, returns to the capital after overcoming equine health issues recorded weeks ago. This event marks the first European stop on the calendar following competitions held in Miami, Mexico, and Shanghai.
The sporting program is highlighted by the Madrid Grand Prix, a 1.60-meter event reaching its 115th edition. The significance of this meeting is further enhanced by its coincidence with the San Isidro festivities, the city's patron saint.
The list of participants features top-tier international figures, including the leaders of the circuit's general classification. Meanwhile, the Spanish contingent aims to seize this home-field opportunity to climb the global rankings, with the participation of riders experienced in top-level competitions.
In addition to the main category, the event includes CSI1 level trials, which will serve as a platform for young national equestrian prospects to demonstrate their progress in an international competitive environment.
