Other World Cup locations announced were: The 2025 Longines FEI Jumping World Cup Final, the 2025 FEI Dressage World Cup Final, and the 2025 FEI Vaulting World Cup Final will be in Basel, Switzerland. The 2025 FEI Driving World Cup Final will take place in Bordeaux, France.
“Today the FEI Board made allocations until 2026 and, after some years of disruption due to COVID-19 and EHV-1, we have excellent sport to look forward to in the coming years,” FEI President Ingmar De Vos said in a statement naming the locations.
“It is wonderful that the Longines FEI Jumping World Cup Final and FEI Dressage World Cup 2026 will travel to the United States,” he added. “With only two years to go until the LA28 Olympic and Paralympic Games, excitement will be mounting, and I’m convinced that it will be an event full of excellent sport, cheer and high energy.
