Sandpolo at Sandbanks

The polo at Sandbanks (the British Beach Polo Championships) is the largest beach polo event in the world. When polo is played in an enclosed arena it has been referred to as ‘Ice Hockey on Horse Back’. Spectators are close to the action – they can fully appreciate the horsemanship, speed and gladiatorial nature of polo. The polo ponies love the sand – they can accelerate, turn on a sixpence and stop in a heartbeat. The thrill and excitement of horses galloping on the sand with the English Channel as a backdrop, whilst sipping champagne amongst glamorous company, is a vision to remember – an intoxicating mix. Polo players engage with the sponsors and spectators both on and off the pitch.

Following the thrill of the day’s action, the energy continues into the evening and we proceed to the after parties. On the Friday join us for the inaugural ‘Boogie on the Beach’, a spectacular evening of entertainment on the world-famous shores of Sandbanks. Party under the stars to the sounds of internationally acclaimed Soul, Motown and Disco artists. The Saturday night closing ‘GOLD Ocean Party’ will be a celebration of the 80s alongside special guests!
