Casas Novas Equestrian Center, host of the seventh leg of the Longines FEI Jumping World Cup™, which is due to be held at its facilities from December 11 – 13 , has announced the cancellation of the event this year. The COVID-19 pandemic has made it impossible to hold the event in adequate safety conditions for the participants and has also been the cause for the cancellation of the summer events.
A Coruña follows the path set by other high-level international events that have already canceled their competitions due to security reasons. Casas Novas Equestrian Center regrets this situation and appreciates the unconditional support received from the sponsors and institutions.
