The 14th edition of the UAE President’s Cup Showjumping Event is underway until 13 April 2025 at Abu Dhabi Equestrian Club.
The event showcases CSI5* and CSI2* competitions and welcomes a world-class roster of FEI-ranked international athletes and horses to the ADEC International Arena. Boasting a record prize pool of more than AED2.35 million, including just over AED2 million for the CSI5* and close to AED300,000 for the CSI2*, this competition sets a new benchmark as the most lucrative individual competition in showjumping in the UAE.
Participants will contest technically challenging courses, culminating in the CSI5* Grand Prix featuring fences up to 1.60m in height. The tracks are designed by Alan Wade, a FEI Level 4 course designer internationally acclaimed for crafting some of the sport's most technical and demanding layouts.
The UAE President’s Cup will culminate in A Legacy Unveiled, A Nation United, a bespoke, immersive performance crafted exclusively for the occasion. This visually striking and emotionally resonant show will celebrate the deep-rooted bond between the UAE’s people, their heritage, and the horse.
Through a fusion of storytelling, music, and dynamic live performance, the audience will be taken on a symbolic journey that honours tradition, unity, and national pride. It will serve as a powerful conclusion to an unforgettable event.
Spanning 54 acres in the heart of Abu Dhabi, ADEC is a flagship venue in the Middle East, with BHS-accredited riding and livery services, an on-site veterinary clinic, and the recently launched Galeria Alkhail Pop-Up.
