The 24th Cheval Passion horse show will take place from January 14-18, 2009, at Avignon Trade Fair Centre in the Vaucluse. Every January, Avignon is transformed into the equestrian world capital. Who hasn’t heard of the Avignon Equestrian Festival - one of only three shows of its kind in Europe and undisputedly the most creative ? Cheval Passion achieves the feat of attracting larger crowds every year and in keeping even regular visitors coming back for more.
The show covers seven major themes : the Gala des Crinières d’Or (Golden Mane Gala), Poney Passion, information events, training for careers with horses, stud farm shows, Equestrian Cabaret, competitions, a trade fair - and much more besides.
