Hippologica Berlin: a tournament-led horse-sport event
22–24 January 2027 | Hall 25, Messe Berlin | Berlin, Germany
Hippologica is the equestrian tournament held as part of Grüne Woche. The organiser describes the coming edition as focused fully on the tournament and confirms that there will be no separate exhibition area. Visitors should approach it as a live sports and demonstration event, rather than as a trade fair for comparing products or sourcing suppliers.
Why Hippologica Berlin matters
Watch equestrian skill in action
The event brings horse-and-rider performance into the foreground. Its current description centres on a tournament, while the organiser's previous-edition coverage illustrates the range of equestrian activity that has appeared at Hippologica.
See different parts of the sport
Recent programme coverage has included show jumping and dressage competitions, training demonstrations, vaulting, driving presentations, breed displays and hobby horsing. These are examples from a previous edition, not a confirmed schedule for the next one.
Who should visit Hippologica Berlin?
Equestrian sports spectators and enthusiasts
If you enjoy horse sport, the tournament format offers a chance to watch competition and demonstrations in an indoor arena. Check the organiser's detailed programme when it is released to identify the performances and disciplines most relevant to you.
Riders, coaches and equestrian clubs
Use the live programme to observe riding technique, horse preparation and the partnership between rider and horse. If you are visiting with a specific learning goal, note the disciplines and demonstrations you want to follow once the timetable is available.
Equestrian organisations, sponsors and advertisers
The organiser lists advertising options connected with the competitions, including company presentation during jumping and dressage, perimeter advertising in the demonstration rings and a company portrait. These are promotional opportunities, not a separate product-exhibition area; confirm availability and terms with Messe Berlin.
What can you see at Hippologica Berlin?
The next edition is described as a tournament-focused event, but its detailed competition timetable has not yet been published. The 2026 programme provides historical context: official coverage described show jumping through the Hippologica Grand Prix, dressage, vaulting and training presentations, a driving-art display and hobby horsing. Do not assume every previous feature will return.
What makes Hippologica Berlin different?
The focus is live equestrian sport, not a standalone trade exhibition. The organiser explicitly says that no extra exhibition area is planned. This distinction helps visitors decide whether they want to watch tournament activity or need a separate event for product sourcing and supplier meetings.
How to prepare for Hippologica Berlin
- Decide which disciplines or performances you most want to see.
- Check the organiser's programme and visitor information again before travelling; the detailed schedule for this edition is not yet published.
- Allow time to find the listed event area, Hall 25, within the larger Grüne Woche venue.
- If attending for a club or professional purpose, prepare focused questions about training, competition practice or the equestrian organisations represented.
- Businesses interested in promotional placements should contact the organiser to confirm options, availability and terms; do not plan on a separate Hippologica product stand.
Make the most of the event
Once the timetable is available, prioritise the competition sessions and demonstrations that match your interests. During the event, keep brief notes on disciplines, techniques or organisations you want to follow up. For a club or training group, agree in advance what each person will observe so that you can compare impressions afterwards.
How many days should you plan?
Hippologica is scheduled across three days, from 22 to 24 January 2027. Whether to attend for one day or more depends on the final schedule and your priorities. A single day may suit visitors focused on a particular competition; attending across the event dates may be useful if the published programme distributes several interests across different sessions. The day-by-day timetable is still to be confirmed.
After Hippologica Berlin
Riders and coaches can review their notes against training goals, while clubs and equestrian organisations may follow up on useful contacts or ideas raised during the event. If you attended to assess a promotional opportunity, record the audience and competition context you need and request the organiser's current commercial terms before making a decision.
For businesses: sponsorship and advertising, not product exhibiting
Messe Berlin lists visibility options linked to jumping and dressage competitions, perimeter advertising in demonstration rings and a company portrait. This gives equestrian-sector businesses a way to explore promotional participation, but the organiser says there will be no additional exhibition area. Product demonstrations, exhibitor numbers, stand applications and buyer services for Hippologica have not been announced on the event page.

Is Hippologica Berlin worth visiting?

Equestrian sport opportunities in Germany
Market size and activity
Horse Competence Center Germany (HCCG), citing German Equestrian Federation figures from 2023, reports an estimated total turnover of 6.7 billion euros for Germany's horse industry. HCCG also reports more than 3,400 competitions offered annually in those cited figures. These broad sector indicators describe the wider horse economy and competition calendar, not Hippologica's audience or commercial results.
What this may mean for businesses and visitors
The organiser lists advertising placements at jumping and dressage competitions, in-ring perimeter advertising and company portraits. Equestrian businesses could ask whether those options suit their audience and communications goals; availability and terms require confirmation. Visitors may use Hippologica to watch equestrian sport, but the event page says no separate exhibition area is planned, so product sourcing should not be assumed. Current, product-specific market-entry rules and segment-level demand were not established in the available evidence.
