Longines Global Champions Tour of Hamburg brings top show jumping sport to Klein Flottbek

Hamburg - The show grounds in Hamburg Klein Flottbek will host the prestigious and highest-paying show jumping series, the Longines Global Champions Tour and Global Champions League from August 26 to 29, 2021. This means that the chances are very good that the newly crowned medal winners of the Tokyo Olympic Games will grace the holy turf at Derby Park. 

The sporting program includes the jumping events of the five-star tour including the Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix of Hamburg as well as the decision of the Hamburg stop in the Global Champions League. In addition, there will be an international tour at one-star level and the international youngster series for seven- and eight-year-old show jumpers, the FUNDIS Youngster Tour. In addition, there will be a small but fine exhibition, which invites visitors to stroll around and enjoy culinary delights. 

German Show Jumping and Dressage Derby postponed until 2022

However, the tournament will not be held as the German Jumping and Dressage Derby. This event will be postponed to next year: "Unfortunately, it is not possible to hold a German Jumping and Dressage Derby worthy of the name, even in August, due to the Corona pandemic," explained Show Director Volker Wulff. "This decision was made mainly out of consideration for the many loyal and faithful Derby fans", because also this summer it will not be possible to accommodate everyone with already purchased tickets in the Derby Park. Thus, the tickets from 2020 will also retain their validity for 2022. "Then we want to celebrate the German Jumping and Dressage Derby presented by IDEE KAFFEE on the usual date and, above all, in the usual form, namely on the weekend around Ascension Day," Wulff continued. 

Tickets for the Longines Global Champions Tour of Hamburg next August will be sold independently of Derby tickets.

Showjumping is here, superstars of showjumping head to the longines global champions tour of hamburg csi 5*.

Hamburg, Germany – May 24, 2022 – A heavyweight line up of the stars of showjumping will head to Hamburg this week as the Championship temperature hots up for the sixth leg of the 2022 Longines Global Champions Tour circuit.

Leading the pack will be last year’s LGCT Grand Prix of Hamburg winner  Harrie Smolders  (NED) who will compete in the three day festival of show jumping with his top horses. Current LGCT Championship leader  Pieter Devos  (BEL) will compete in Hamburg looking to extend his lead.

Five time Olympic medallist and home hero  Ludger Beerbaum  (GER) will also be back and looking for another strong result at his local show ground. The top German rider has won the LGCT Grand Prix here before and already won two out of the 5 LGCT Grand Prix this season! Can he make it a third on home soil?

There will be plenty of home heroes for fans to support, with top German riders also including  Marcus Ehning (GER), Christian Ahlmann (GER), Janne-Freiderike Meyer-Zimmermann (GER), Philipp Weishaupt (GER), Daniel Deusser (GER), Maurice Tebbel (GER), Hans-Dieter Dreher (GER) and U25 star Philipp Schulze Topphoff (GER), who will all be looking to pull out a stellar performance in the LGCT Grand Prix to dazzle the knowledgeable crowds.

They will face stiff competition from names such as  Max Kühner (AUT), Niels Bruynseels (BEL), Olivier Philippaerts (BEL), Harry Charles (GBR), John Whitaker (GBR), Ioli Mytilineou (GRE), Shane Breen (IRL), Michael Duffy (IRL), Darragh Kenny (IRL), Geir Gulliksen (NOR) and Michael Pender (IRL) all lining up for a chance to earn a place in the all-important LGCT Super Grand Prix at the GC Prague Playoffs at the end of the season. The current qualifiers for the Longines Global Champions Super Grand Prix include Ludger Beerbaum (GER), Katrin Eckermann (GER), Denis Lynch (IRL),  Sanne Thijssen  and last weekend’s LGCT St Tropez winner Malin Bayard-Johnsson (SWE)- with ten more places available in the ultimate showdown in show jumping.

Hamburg, Germany’s biggest port city and its ‘gateway to the world’ will host another stunning round of action on the Longines Global Champions Tour from 25 – 29 May and young talent  Jack Whitaker  (GBR) will be back in action for the first time since his freak accident where he was kicked by a horse that kept him out of the ring for a few weeks.

At the Derby-Park Klein Flottbeck , families can enjoy picnics in the countryside setting where the German Jumping and Dressage Derby has been held for decades. Or visitors can take a trip into the city to enjoy a whole host of activities from sight-seeing to fine dining, music to museums.

With the level of competition and excitement building year on year, the sixth stop on the LGCT season will be a thriller.
