The CDIOs of Falsterbø, Sweden and Rotterdam, Netherlands will no longer host legs of the FEI Dressage Nations Cup™ as previously planned in 2024. However, according to organizers, both events will proceed as regular CDIO5* and CDIO4* competitions, respectively. This follows the notice that CDIO Aachen gave in February that it would not stage an FEI Dressage Nations Cup™ Event in 2024, opting instead to hold a regular CDIO5*.

The decision of Falsterbø and Rotterdam to withdraw stemmed from their preference to choose to invite their own participating teams independently of the updated regulations specified in Article 3.4 of the FEI Dressage Nations Cup Rules 2024. which states:

“Each CDIO-NC Organiser must invite all NFs and is not permitted to limit the number of NFs that can participate. The only possible limitation is the maximum number of combinations to start per day (forty (40) combinations).”
