Stefano Ricci Collaboration and New Format Announced for the 127th Edition of Fieracavalli

The 127th edition of Fieracavalli is currently gearing up for its run from November 6 to 9, 2025, in Verona. Hosted at the Veronafiere exhibition center, this premier international equestrian show is introducing a completely revamped format designed to significantly enhance its appeal for both professional attendees and the general public. Established in 1898, Fieracavalli has long been recognized as Italy's foremost international showcase for the equestrian sector.

Elevating the event's profile this year is a significant partnership secured with the luxury brand Stefano Ricci. This family-owned Italian luxury lifestyle house, headquartered in Fiesole near Florence, will unveil a bespoke collection comprising more than thirty garments and accessories tailored specifically for dressage. This curated line underscores Stefano Ricci’s profound connection to the discipline of dressage, bridging the worlds of high sport, art, and design.

The updated configuration of Fieracavalli utilizes a total of 12 pavilions alongside six expansive outdoor spaces. This layout is meticulously planned to highlight the rich biodiversity of the national and international equine world. The high caliber of the event is evidenced by the previous edition's success, which attracted 140,000 visitors and featured 700 companies hailing from over 35 countries. This year’s comprehensive program places a strong emphasis on the pillars of sport, culture, and professional training.

For culinary enthusiasts, a high-quality gastronomic area has been established, curated by Filippo Polidori, celebrating the theme 'From the stable to the table'. Furthermore, Fieracavalli is launching key educational initiatives, including the 'Horse Future Hub' pilot project, developed in collaboration with Orienta Verona. This project aims to connect local schools with career paths within the equestrian profession. Federico Briccolo, President of Veronafiere, highlighted the substantial economic impact of this sector, noting that it generates over 3 billion Euros annually and supports more than 100,000 jobs across Italy.

Central to the sporting calendar is 'Jumping Verona,' which serves as the exclusive Italian stage for the prestigious Longines FEI Jumping World Cup and hosts the final of the Italian Champions Tour. Historically, Fieracavalli has been a crucial hub for the horse breeding industry and the equipment market, tracing its roots back to the first horse fair held in 1772. This year, Verona is poised to cement its status as the capital of world equine culture, presenting a fresh vision of lifestyle that seamlessly integrates sport, music, design, art, and enduring tradition.
