Equestrian show in Austria

Those taking a ferry to Austria in March may wish to time their holiday with Vienna's premier equestrian show.

Apassionata - Grand Voyage takes place at the city's Stadthalle venue on March 1st. Two shows are scheduled for the Saturday, with a daytime matinee and an evening performance.

The finest equestrian skills will be on show alongside traditional dances and costumes. Horses from across the globe will appear in show - which has proved to be one of the most successful in Europe after being put together in Germany.

The show has been lauded for its "fantastic horsemanship and artistry" by the Times and has already been seen by over two million spectators across the continent. Taking audiences on a voyage across the world of horses, visitors can expect to see the best Arabian, Icelandic, Andalusian and Lusitanos horses.

The show is a must for horse lovers and with Vienna just a short distance from the UK via ferry, now could be the best time for all the family to visit.
