Hester & Pearson perform alongside the Spanish Riding School
The Spanish Riding School of Vienna announce their 60th international tour due to start this year and with only three London dates – tickets for this exclusive event, to be held at Wembley Arena in November 2011 are a must for families, horse lovers and those with an interest in this wonderful Viennese cultural experience.
This year Olympic and Paralympic dressage riders Carl Hester and Lee Pearson are performing a specially choreographed routine prior to the Spanish Riding School’s main event. Watch Carl and Lee's interview with Horse & Country TV here.
It is five years since the majestic, highly trained horses and riders of the 430 year old “High School for Classical Horsemanship” have graced the halls of the UK. Their last tour sold out within days as the opportunity to see the scholars of the Winter Riding School based in the Hofburg Palace in Vienna is a rare occurrence.
Their new show titled “Imperial Dream” sees an impressive display of classical equitation in the Renaissance tradition of the haute école.
Visitors to the world famous Spanish Riding School in Vienna thrill in the absolute balance and harmony achieved by these beautiful White Lipizzaner stallions and their regal riders. Famed for their in-hand work and movements above the ground such as the Capriole, Levade and Courbette the Imperial Dream Show will feature all the classics but with a difference.
Incredibly moving, highly sophisticated and full of the glamour of Imperial Vienna this is one ticket that lovers of horses and the arts won’t want to miss out on.

Three of us will be there, Rod, my best friend Diane and yours truly. We look forward to seeing the SRS again !
AntwortenLöschenWe saw the SRS way back when (2001) in London, which gave my daughter at the age of 10 her passion for all things SRS and above all else Lipizzaners and riding horses - one show and it was all over for her - nothing would be the same again as life suddenly became all about the horse - and it still goes on today - the SRS planted a passion in her that I know will never die. So thanks for that - I think!!
