“Yes, we leave the event without the first prize, but it didn’t upset us at all, the nominees were leading event agencies and the format of our event, of course, was different from others. I am sure that in any case we surprised everyone and were definitely remembered for our uniqueness and individuality. We’ve got into the group of finalists of the award, and this is a victory, no doubt about it. Exchange of experience, meeting interesting people, love for your work — all this is the success that brings pleasure,” said Laura Miguel, Director of the International Equestrian Exhibition “Hipposphere.”

The Award “Event of the Year” traditionally identifies best practices in Russia, covering all formats of events. It allows identifying trendsetters and giving deserved recognition to their achievements. The purpose of the award is increasing the event industry significance as the industry contributing to development of the creative economy of the Russian Federation.

The award is supported by the Moscow Government and the TASS News Agency.

The International Equestrian Exhibition “Hipposphere” is the country’s core event for representatives of the equestrian industry and horse lovers. Every year, the project brings together horse breeders, private horse owners, manufacturers of goods for horses and riders, the industry experts, athletes and all horses.

The event will take place on June 9–12, 2023, in Saint Petersburg. Learn more about the event at the project’s official website.
