The National Stud Farm's event calendar is once again full of the breeding, sporting and social events.
At the end of March, we will welcome breeders and horse enthusiasts to the Breeding Seminar, which will include the presentation of stud stallions for the new breeding season. Other breeding events will continue throughout the year.
Even though the tourist season does not start until May, the National Stud Farm will open its doors during the Easter Holidays with Family Trips.
The most famous day at the stud farm is the Traditional Open Day on May 1st. This year is the 25th anniversary. A rich program will be prepared for spectators, such as demonstrations of equestrian disciplines, tours of the riding hall, rides in carriages pulled by the royal Lipizzan breed, and much more. The highlight of the event will certainly be the festive Gala Program, which is enjoyed not only by the youngest but also by adults.
The very popular "Carriage for Sissi" will diversify the program during the holidays. A ride in a carriage pulled by Lipizzaners in the pleasant surroundings of the Castle Park will transport you to the past and, at least for a moment, you will forget the problems of modern everyday life.
The National Stud Farm is also unique in its multifunctionality and quality of conditions, as it organizes competitions in up to four equestrian disciplines and horse races. The first sporting events at the National Stud Farm will open in May. The last will be vaulting competitions on the end of August, which are popular even with the youngest children.
The third Saturday in October traditionally belongs to Hubert's Ride, which closes the equestrian season.
The last of the prepared events is the arrival of St. Nicholas to the National Stud Farm again with a new and interesting story.
All information for visitors about the events can be found on our official website and Facebook page. We look forward to your visit.
