Kazakhstan to Host FEI Jumping World Challenge Final 2026 for the First Time

Recently in Lausanne, our delegation had a truly significant day. The Kazakh delegation was led by the President of the Federation, Rustam Bayaliyev. For the first time in its history, Kazakhstan is preparing to host the FEI Jumping World Challenge Final 2026, which will bring together riders from 20 countries around the world.

We are currently working активно with the FEI Solidarity Committee on educational projects. As early as May, coaching and club management courses will be held in Astana. Our veterinarians and top show jumpers will travel to leading European centers to enhance their qualifications. This is part of a broader, systematic effort to prepare the national team for the Asian Games in Tokyo.

One of the key moments was a meeting with FEI President Ingmar De Vos and Secretary General Sabrina Ibáñez. The leadership of the international federation highly appreciated our progress and officially accepted the invitation to visit Astana for the FEI Jumping World Challenge Final 2026 and a World Cup stage, which will take place from May 26 to 31 at the Argamak Equestrian Club.
