Hippologica 2026 in Berlin, Germany

Hippologica 2026 is an equestrian tournament within Internationale Grüne Woche, where sport, spectacular performances, and a true “indoor arena” bring together both devoted fans and first-timers discovering the world of equestrian sport.

It never feels like “watched it and left”. In Hall 25, you can literally hear the horses breathe, see the riders’ work in detail, and live every turn of the course together with the grandstands.

Important for planning: Hippologica takes place during the final days of Grüne Woche, so it is easy to combine top-class equestrian sport and the fair’s other themed worlds in one trip.

About Hippologica 2026 : who should definitely come

Hippologica 2026 is designed to appeal to different people. Some come for the adrenaline of jumping, others for the elegance of dressage and the power of teamwork in vaulting.

• Equestrian sport fans

  For those who want to see the disciplines live, with real sporting intensity, not just highlights on social media.

• Families with children

  It is one of the brightest formats at Grüne Woche: grandstands, show elements, and emotions that even newcomers instantly understand.

• Industry professionals

  Coaches, club owners, athletes, veterinarians, and service providers get a great reason to meet and make arrangements on the Messe Berlin grounds.

• People who choose sport as a lifestyle

  The programme includes not only competitions, but also training presentations where you can pick up practical insights for your own routine.

History of Hippologica: part of Grüne Woche since 2018, with a tournament focus

In its modern format, Hippologica became part of Internationale Grüne Woche in 2018. Since then, the event has been held in January and is seen as a spectacular finale to the fair days, when equestrian sport fills the grandstands at Messe Berlin.

The organisational set-up also adds stability: the sporting and tournament programme is jointly prepared by the Berlin-Brandenburg Equestrian Sports Association (LPBB) and Messe Berlin.

Benefits of Hippologica: why it outperforms many equestrian formats

Hippologica brings a rare combination of advantages: stadium energy, a clear programme, and the perfect Grüne Woche setting, when huge visitor and participant flows arrive in Berlin.

• A tournament-first focus

  Officially, there is no separate exhibition area planned within the equestrian tournament. That means one clear priority: competitions, show moments, and a tightly packed sports programme.

• A line-up of disciplines that holds your attention

  Grüne Woche materials highlight dressage, show jumping, obstacle driving, vaulting, and a training presentation.

• Online results

  For spectators who love the details, not only the эмоций, there is an option to follow results on the tournament page.

• A strong stage and a recognisable hall

  Hall 25 at Messe Berlin is an “arena” format where atmosphere comes naturally: lighting, sound, grandstands, and close-up views of every element of the performance.

6 well-known companies and organisations at Hippologica 2026 : who makes the event happen

At Hippologica, it is not only about who enters the arena, but also who keeps the event running like clockwork. Below are six ecosystem participants officially referenced as organisers, partners, or tournament infrastructure.

• Messe Berlin

  The venue host and co-organiser of the tournament programme. For partners, this means clear processes, strong infrastructure, and experience handling large visitor flows.

• Landesverband Pferdesport Berlin-Brandenburg e.V. (LPBB)

  The specialist organisation responsible for the sporting side and programme. This adds credibility: disciplines and the format are shaped by people who live equestrian sport every day, not only on special occasions.

• Pferdeland Brandenburg

  One of the official sponsors of Hippologica. The brand is associated with the region’s equestrian culture and supports an event that opens the Berlin-Brandenburg season.

• Tierarzt24

  An official tournament sponsor and a visible player in the pet supplies segment. For the audience, it is a “natural” partner—closely connected to care, health, and the everyday routines of owners.

• Kerbl

  An internationally known manufacturer of agricultural and animal husbandry products, sponsoring Hippologica. Its presence strengthens the practical side of the event, where it is not only performances that matter, but also the infrastructure around the animals.

• Equi-Score

  The platform where you can track competition results online. For fans and professionals, it is a great detail: the tournament is transparent and convenient for those who follow numbers and protocols.

Tips for Hippologica visitors: how to get the most out of the experience

Hippologica takes place during the busy days of Grüne Woche, so a little preparation makes the visit far more comfortable.

• Mark the key disciplines first

  Dressage, show jumping, vaulting, and obstacle driving deliver completely different emotions. If it is your first time, plan at least two disciplines so you can feel the contrast in styles.

• Catch the training presentation

  It is a rare format where you see “how they work”, not only “how they win”. A great option for those who train—or coach—on a regular basis.

• Use the Grüne Woche app and timetable

  The programme is available online and in the fair’s app. It makes it easier to not miss the most spectacular moments.

• A hidden trick for photos and comfort

  Arrive a little before the biggest sessions start: shorter lines, calmer seat selection, and photos without a “forest of phones”.

Product and service categories at Hippologica 2026 : what the audience will see

Officially, Hippologica is presented with a full tournament focus and no separate exhibition zone. At the same time, the event lives within Grüne Woche and Messe Berlin, and partner activations plus neighbouring themed areas create a broader context.

• Equestrian sport and show programme: dressage, show jumping, vaulting, driving.
• Services and solutions for animal health and care.
• Animal-keeping infrastructure and practical products from specialist brands.
• Digital tournament services: schedule, protocols, online results.

How to join Hippologica 2026 as a partner or exhibitor

If you want to be represented at Hippologica 2026, participation works differently than at a classic “booth-based exhibition”. The organisers offer advertising and partnership options directly within the tournament, and for exhibiting in the Animal Hall there is a contact point on the Messe Berlin side.

• Choose your presence format
  • Company presentation within show jumping and dressage competitions.
  • Perimeter advertising in the demonstration circles.
  • A company profile with a website link on the event resources.
• Prepare a “contact script”

  What matters here is not the number of brochures, but a precise message: who you are, how you help the equestrian audience, and why you can be trusted.

• Make the stand practical, not loud

  If you plan an on-site presence zone at Messe Berlin, it makes sense to set it up as a meeting space and a product showcase. This is where exhibition stand construction or exhibition stand rental by ESBAU can help — a professional exhibition stand builder in Europe.
