Jumps and Caprioles
Some surprising athletes are joining us for the Saut Hermès! After an initial lap around the course, the animals will assemble in the centre. In a joyful bound, they’ll set off around the course, skilfully avoiding each obstacle along the way. Jump for joy!
Ready, steady, bow!
With quivers on their shoulders and victory on their minds, young riders and their mounts will test their skills on the course. The aim of the game is to land the most arrows in the centre of the targets placed on the ground. Run by the Chaville pony club, each session lasts for around fifteen minutes. A celebration of sport, games and skills!
Meet the animals
Between 9.30am and 7pm, the family paddock will be open to all for some close encounters with animals. These loyal companion animals, who love being pet and fawned over, are calmed by the presence of curious children. A magical moment that the little ones can enjoy wholeheartedly.
Room to groom
There’s a celebratory feel in the family paddock, right in the heart of the Grand Palais. In a space dedicated to sharing and discovery, youngsters can meet the Chaville ponies. Gentle initiations for first-timers, harnessed rides and grooming workshops from the grooms themselves combine to provide a wonderful introduction to all things equestrian. Saddle up!
L’Envolée
On Pegasus’ back, sporting a virtual reality headset, visitors both old and young can take part in an equestrian adventure. They’ll use their magic saddle to transform reality into drawings in a dreamlike ride through space and time. Spread your wings!
