This year, the Printemps des Sports Equestres also hosted a CDI 5* International Dressage Competition, which represents the highest level of dressage competitions established by the International Equestrian Federation. 
During the 5-day event, Le Grand Parquet gave spectators the chance to immerse themselves in the world of riding and its core values: sport, fair play and respect. The programme included various fun events and entertainment activities for both adults and children, making this year's Printemps des Sports Equestres a genuine celebration of horse riding and the equestrian world.
