The current Lipizzaner tour features 12 to 14 stallions performing selected maneuvers of the Grand Prix Olympic level dressage.
Riding the horses and putting them through their paces are a dozen of the most capable riders from around the world. At the conclusion of the performance, the Lipizzaner Stallions will perform the traditional Grand Quadrille, featuring six to eight Lipizzaner Stallions and their riders executing an intricate equine ballet, exhibiting maneuvers through the highest level of dressage.
Over the years over 25 million people have attended Lipizzaner Stallion shows in North and South America, Europe, Australia and Hawaii.
