This year, our international equestrian festival CHI Pärnu is celebrating its 5th anniversary while taking again a few steps forward in growth – as jumping, dressage and driving will be accompanied by international eventing classes and the international equestrian sports festival will take place over three, instead of the usual two weeks. Hereto a World Cup leg for Show Jumping athletes has been added to the program in addition to the usual Dressage World Cup leg.
As per usual the competition cycle starts with dressage, whereas on 24.-25th of May international classes for children, ponies, young riders, juniors and young horses as well as the CDI1* and World Cup leg CDI-W will be held.
From the second week, the Show Jumpers start their two-week competition period, whereas in the first week there’ s going to be the usual CSI2* competitions and the second week will culminate with CSI2*-W World Cup leg. This year CHI Pärnu offers three World Ranking (Longines Ranking) classes for Show jumpers including the Grand Prix competitions of both weeks as well as a 145cm class on Friday on the second weekend. Ofcourse classes at heights of 110 – 140cm will be held as well as international competitions for young horses and pony classes..
In the second and third weeks, alongside the show jumpers – international driving and eventing competitions will also be had. Driving competitions will take place at CAI3* and CAI2* levels accompanied with one national class. CHI Pärnu 2025 also offers the opportunity for drivers to fulfill their qualifications for the Nordic and baltic Championships as well as for this year’s Pony’s World Championships and next year’s World Championships for single horse carriages.
Our newly added eventing program includes international CCI2*-S competition – coinciding with the junior level of this year’s Nordic and Baltic Championships, making it a good test for our juniors. The national eventing program includes CCN80 and CCN100 classes, with the opportunity for ponies to compete at the CCN100 level – again making it a good test run at their level for the upcoming Nordic and Baltic Championships taking place in the fall.
All CHI Pärnu 2025 international schedules have now been published in the FEI home page and the entries are open. The schedules for the national classes will be published on www.ratsanet.ee website shortly.
