Since 1960
Sixty-five years of history
The home of Venetian equestrianism
Inaugurated by CONI in 1960, Circolo Ippico Venezia Lido has been the home of Venetian equestrianism for over sixty-five years. Our arenas overlook the lagoon; our horses gallop where few in the world can. One hundred and forty members of all ages, thirty horses, a federation-affiliated riding school, a pony club, a riding therapy program. A community caring for a singular place.
