We'll be catching up with as many of the owners (those vital people) as we can in Normandy and also those amazing grooms! Look out for some interesting interviews and glimpses of what it's like behind the scenes
Many of Australia’s teams will spend the week leading into the event attending pre-Games staging camps where they’ll be given an opportunity to work with specialist coaches. Teams will progressively start to arrive in Caen prior to the Games Opening Ceremony on 23 August.
For the best eventing coverage, you know where to come! Just make sure you have your 4* membership so that you don't miss out on the best interviews, photos and event coverage
