The young stallion licensing will take place from 13 to 16 December 2023 at the association’s grounds in Elmshorn. Advance ticket sales for this event will begin on Monday, 16 October 2023.
Tickets will then be available to order online via Eventim, at all the usual ticket outlets and through the Holsteiner Verband in Elmshorn.
To ensure the stallions can be assessed as effectively as possible, free jumping sessions will be held on both Thursday and Friday for the first time. These two free jumping sessions are both integral parts of the licensing and will follow the same format: the stallions will not be led into the arena in a line, but will enter freely.
