After several years of modernization, Hipodrom Wola Poznań is ready to welcome international equestrian sport back to the city. In June 2026, the venue will host prestigious CSI-level show jumping competitions. The event marks an important step in restoring Poznań’s place on the European equestrian map. It is also a chance for residents to experience top-level sport in a renewed historic setting
International Show Jumping Returns to Poznań
In early June 2026, Hipodrom Wola Poznań will once again become a center of international equestrian competition. From June 4 to June 7, 2026, the venue will host the CSI Poznań event, including competitions at the levels CSI3*, CSI1*, and CSIYH for young horses.
This marks the return of high-ranking show jumping competitions to Hipodrom Wola Poznań after a period of redevelopment and organizational change. Events of this category attract experienced riders competing for international ranking points and are an important part of the European equestrian calendar.
For the city, the event represents not only a sporting highlight but also a clear signal that Hipodrom Wola Poznań is once again ready to host competitions at the highest level.
A Venue with Strong Equestrian Traditions
For many years, Hipodrom Wola Poznań was one of the key locations for equestrian sport in Poland. Riders and spectators associated the venue with national championships, training events, and international meetings that helped shape the local equestrian community.
The June 2026 competitions continue this tradition while opening a new stage in the history of Hipodrom Wola Poznań. The return of international riders confirms that the venue is regaining its importance on the European circuit.
At the same time, the event offers residents of Poznań a rare opportunity to watch professional show jumping live, without traveling abroad to major competition centers.
Experience of Grupa MTP Behind the Event
Since 2023, Hipodrom Wola Poznań has been managed by Grupa MTP, an organization well known in the equestrian world as the creator of the CAVALIADA Tour. Their experience in organizing international competitions plays an important role in preparing the venue for the return of CSI-level events. The involvement of Grupa MTP has already brought visible changes to Hipodrom Wola Poznań. The goal is to develop the venue into a modern training and competition center capable of hosting both national and international events regularly.
The June 2026 CSI Poznań competition is the first major step in this long-term plan.
Modern Arenas with Ebbe und Flut Technology
One of the most significant upgrades at Hipodrom Wola Poznań ahead of the competition is the modernization of the arena surfaces. A new competition arena and warm-up arena together cover more than 10,000 square meters.
Both arenas use the Ebbe und Flut system, a technology widely applied at leading equestrian facilities across Europe. It allows precise control of ground moisture and ensures stable conditions regardless of weather changes.
For riders, this means better performance conditions. For horses, it increases safety and comfort during competitions. Thanks to these improvements, Hipodrom Wola Poznań now meets international infrastructure standards expected at CSI-level events.
Four Days of Competition and Public Events
Between June 4 and June 7, 2026, Hipodrom Wola Poznań will host several days of competitions open to spectators. The CSI3* category is expected to attract top-ranked riders, while CSIYH classes will showcase promising young horses at an early stage of their careers.
International competitions of this type are not only professional sporting events but also attractive public gatherings. Visitors can expect a dynamic schedule of jumping classes and the opportunity to experience the atmosphere of live equestrian sport close to the arena. For many residents, this will be the first opportunity in years to see large-scale international competitions again at Hipodrom Wola Poznań.
