-        11 riding arenas with constant events.
-        A Health Section dedicated to the well-being of horses and riders,
-        More than 40 breeds of horses and ponies are presented in the Breeding Section, a genuine showcase for the French horse breeding,
-        A Hippolia by Equita Start-up Village that promotes new businesses in the equestrian sector.

Great shows

Two Sport and Entertainment evenings mark the highlights of the Equita Lyon programme. The evenings start with a major international riding competition, then a fantastic performing-arts show places the spotlight on other equestrian talents and skills.

Equita Lyon also sets aside a space for equestrian art and culture: painting, sculpture, literature, etc. Everything is aimed at celebrating man's best friend.

Children and budding riders also have their own special area at Equita Lyon: the children's village. Here, youngsters can enjoy their first ride on a pony, play on a merry-go-round or a bouncy castle, see different farm animals, and much more. Everything is designed to make sure they have a great time!
