Combining sport and elegance? Paris does it on numerous occasions, and one of the most iconic events is undoubtedly the Saut Hermès. This show jumping competition, among the most challenging in the international circuit, allows you to discover the beauty and physical commitment of this discipline under the prestigious Parisian label Hermès. Book your tickets along with your stay at the Hotel Le Burgundy.
An Exceptional Setting
It will take you just fifteen minutes by metro from Hotel Le Burgundy to reach the Grand Palais Éphémère on the Champ-de-Mars. This elegant structure made of wood and metal temporarily hosts events that were usually held at the Grand Palais, currently closed for renovations. This setting superbly showcases the different events of the Saut Hermès, complemented by a training paddock and animations on the Champ-de-Mars. How could one imagine a more beautiful backdrop for a show jumping competition?
All the Emotions of the Equestrian World
Of course, the various competitions that punctuate the three days of the event, from March 15 to 17, 2024, provide an opportunity to thrill with the best riders and their mounts. The level is particularly high, especially for the closing flagship event on Sunday afternoon, the Grand Prix Hermès CSI5*. However, the equestrian show "L’Allure d’une aventure" offers a dreamlike and aesthetic vision of riding, while the demonstrations "Trot and Roll" and "La Folie des tâches" demonstrate strength and mastery. Included in the daily programs, they allow genuine breaks between the competitions.
A Full-Scale Rehearsal for Riders and Their Mounts before the Paris 2024 Olympics, the Saut Hermès also enables a novice audience to discover the beauty and difficulty of the discipline.
