Azerbaijan has made a notable appearance at one of the world’s most prestigious equestrian events, with a large delegation participating in the CHIO Aachen tournament in Germany, according to the Azerbaijan Equestrian Federation.
More than 150 representatives from the Azerbaijan Equestrian Federation took part in the event held in Aachen, which is widely regarded as the “Wimbledon of equestrian sport” due to its long history and global prestige.
First organised in 1898, CHIO Aachen brings together top-ranked riders and leading equestrian nations from around the world.
The competition took place at the Soers complex in the Hauptstadion arena, which has a capacity of around 40,000 spectators and attracts thousands of visitors and international media representatives each year.
A special highlight of the event was the “Horse & Symphony” programme themed around James Bond, featuring a joint performance by the orchestra of the Azerbaijani State Border Service and the CHIO Aachen orchestra.
The show combined music, equestrian art and stage performance, drawing strong applause from the audience.
Azerbaijan’s Garabagh and Dilbaz horses also attracted particular attention during the event, showcasing the country’s long-standing equestrian traditions. Their presentation, accompanied by national musical elements, was highlighted as a demonstration of Azerbaijan’s cultural heritage on an international stage.
The city of Aachen is set to host the 2026 FEI World Equestrian Championships, further reinforcing its status as a global centre for equestrian sport.
Azerbaijani participation in CHIO Aachen was described as another sign of the country’s growing international sporting and cultural profile.
