Fontainebleau Classic — Event cancelled
It is with regret that we inform you that Fontainebleau Classic, scheduled for June 24-28, has to be cancelled.
Despite the postponement already decided to Friday, June 26 and the planned adaptations to the sporting program, the evolution of the weather forecast which announces a prolongation of the heat wave and the red alert situation in Fontainebleau no longer allows us to guarantee the safety of the horses, riders, the public and all the teams present on the site.
We would like to thank the sub-prefecture of Fontainebleau, the Communauté d'agglomération du Pays de Fontainebleau, the city of Fontainebleau, the Grand Parquet de Fontainebleau, the French Equestrian Federation, the services of the Departmental Directorate for the Protection of Populations for their cooperation and support throughout this process.
We thank all the riders and their families, the federations, partners, exhibitors, service providers, and organizing teams for their understanding. Information regarding the practical arrangements for refunds will be communicated to you as soon as possible. We hope to see you very soon at the competition arenas.
Until then, take good care of yourselves and your horses.

A new addition to the amateur season, the Dada Challenge Tour is set to enliven the GRANDPRIX Events arenas throughout spring 2026. Three stages, one common goal: to secure one of the three coveted wildcards for the CSI 1* Chantilly Classic presented by Al Shira'aa, from July 9th to 12th, 2026, and leave with an exclusive Dada Sport prize package. The competition kicks off on the sand of Le Touquet Classic, from May 7th to 10th. Amateur riders will start earning points there, before returning to the Normandy coast for Cabourg Classic, from May 28th to 31st, for a second leg known for its speed and potential for comebacks. The final standings will be decided at Fontainebleau Classic, from June 25th to 28th, where the last stage will award the majority of remaining points and where the Amateur Grand Prix will serve as the tiebreaker in case of a tie. At the end of the Tour, the three highest-ranked riders will join the mythical lawn of Chantilly, under the colors of Dada Sport, to tread a track usually reserved for the international elite.

Beyond the sporting performances, Fontainebleau Classic once again offered a weekend rich in conviviality. On Friday, the legendary Petit Parquet was transformed into a giant beach for the beach volleyball tournament. In a relaxed atmosphere where flip-flops and shorts were the order of the day, four teams competed directly on the track. Saturday, it was time for the show with the highly anticipated Jump & Drive by CWD, a unique event that combines speed riding and car relays. Among the regulars of this competition, Camille Condé Ferreira, a 4* rider, had never before won… And now she has! For the first time, she shared the adventure with her companion Rosario Mangione, and the duo won brilliantly. Already the winner of the opening event of the CSI 1* on Thursday, her horse Black Knight GEM brought her luck once again!
