In Paris? Check out this Hermès Equestrian Event

 

Surfing Haute Living from your chic room at the Hotel Bristol or Hotel de Crillon in Paris, looking for a quintessential French event to add that je ne sais quoi to your trip? Then we have one worth checking out.

For the 6^th year in a row, one of the most covetable names in luxury, Hermès, is hosting an equestrian competition. Le Saut Hermes will take place on April 10 – 12 at the Grand Palais. World acclaimed riders and horses will gather for the competition with nine rounds of show jumping.

Hermès told Haute Living that they “Want to revive and develop the tradition of equestrian sports.” After all, they did start their legendary company making horse-bridals and harnesses in 1837, so it makes perfect sense that they are supporting this prestigious sport. Heck, it’s worth the price of the ticket just to check out the historic Grand Palais and as far as we’re concerned, if Hermès had a party to watch paint dry — we would go.
