The 12th Longines Beijing Masters Officially Opens: A New Chapter in China's Equestrian Journey


The 12th Longines Beijing Masters, one of Asia's most prestigious equestrian events, has officially announced its grand opening, inviting riders and enthusiasts to witness another year of world-class show jumping at the iconic National Stadium (Bird's Nest). As the pinnacle of China's equestrian calendar, this year's edition promises to elevate the sport with higher competition standards, expanded participation opportunities, and cutting-edge digital integration through the Smart Equestrian Platform.

A Legacy of Excellence

Since its debut in 2011, the Longines Beijing Masters—a collaboration between Dashing Equestrian and German show jumping legend Ludger Beerbaum—has grown into a cornerstone of Asia's equestrian scene. Over the past 12 years, the event has hosted Olympic gold medalists, world No. 1-ranked riders, and rising Chinese talents, serving as a vital bridge between China and the global equestrian community. This year's competition continues that tradition, offering a platform where elite international riders and homegrown stars will compete side by side.

Smart Equestrian: Revolutionizing the Competition Experience

In 2025, the organizers have further streamlined the registration process through the Smart Equestrian Platform (https://entry.equinechina.com), ensuring a seamless experience for participants. Key features include:
  • Real-time entry tracking for riders and teams
  • Automated eligibility checks to ensure fair competition
  • Integrated payment and certificate issuance for efficiency
This digital transformation reflects the event's commitment to innovation, making it easier than ever for riders to focus on performance rather than logistics.

What to Expect in 2025

This year's Longines Beijing Masters will showcase:
  • Four Major Qualifiers: The "Road to the Bird's Nest" series, spanning Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Greater Bay Area, Yangtze River Delta, and Southwest China, ensures broad access for riders nationwide.
  • Repechage (Wildcard) Opportunities: A second chance for those who narrowly miss direct qualification.
  • Youth Development Focus: Expanded 60CM and 90CM categories to nurture the next generation of Chinese riders.
  • Enhanced Spectator Experience: Interactive fan zones, live broadcasts, and behind-the-scenes insights via official social media.

A Global Stage for Chinese Equestrianism

The Longines Beijing Masters is more than a competition—it's a celebration of China's equestrian progress. With each passing year, the technical level of Chinese riders has risen dramatically, thanks in part to structured pathways like this event. As the sport gains momentum in China, the Bird's Nest remains the ultimate proving ground for athletes aiming to compete on the world stage.
