With just under three weeks left until the tournament brings excitement, glamour and premier polo action to the Engadine Valley, every preparation is seamlessly falling into place. Construction will commence in the coming days, setting the stage for another extraordinary event for which VIP tickets are already in huge demand.
The Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz 2024 (26 – 28 January 2024) is just under three weeks away. With the Engadine Valley resembling a winter wonderland and Lake St. Moritz completely frozen, all preparations are running at full speed and the construction of the extensive infrastructure is about to commence. In addition to the 200 x 100 metre polo field, the grandstands, the Polo Village with various tents and stands, a VIP tent with around 900 seats, the warm-up tents for the polo ponies will also be built upon the frozen lake – an impressive engineering feat which uses approximately 3,900 tonnes of material!
The snow polo action commences on Friday 26 January with the first three matches, culminating in the Final on Sunday 28 January 2024 with all the glitz and glamour you would expect from the world’s only high-goal snow polo tournament. VIP tickets are still available for those looking for something special. Of course, it is first come, first served – the event always sells out. Tickets can be purchased with one click directly from the website https://www.snowpolo-stmoritz.com/tickets/. As always, entry to the venue and the Polo Village is free.
Once again, six high-profile teams are poised to engage in fierce competition, promising spectators awe-inspiring moments and breathtaking polo performances set against the iconic mountain backdrop. This year introduces three new Captains to the arena: Lidia Gauss (Team Mackage), Philipp Müller (Team Perrier-Jouët) and Jonathan Tidswell-Pretorius (Team St. Moritz). Also returning are: Melissa Ganzi (Team World Polo League), who became the first woman to win the prestigious tournament in 2019; Eduardo Greghi (Team The Kusnacht Practice) and Marc Ganzi (Team Flexjet).
