INT. ARABIAN HORSE FESTIVAL STRAIGHT EGYPTIAN 2022 | 14-16 OCTOBER

by Giorgia Mauri photos by SERC

Sharjah, one of the seven Emirates, which shares a border with Dubai, is commonly considered the cultural Capital of the United Arab Emirates. Thanks to the abundance of museums and mosques in its territory a rich history is waiting to be discovered. In addition its charming long beach overlooking the Persian Gulf should also be enjoyed.

Sharjah Equestrian & Racing Club hosted the International Arabian Straight Egyptian Horse Festival. Incredible Straight Egyptian Arabian horses from the Arabian Peninsula and abroad participated in the competition, and the handlers worked hard to showcase the out-of-the-ordinary beauty and special qualities of their contenders as they fought for victory.

The entire event was, as always, impeccably organized and marked by great hospitality.

Definitely an event not to be missed! q

ARABIAN HORSE FESTIVAL UAE BRED 2022 | 3-6 NOVEMBER

by Giorgia Mauri photos by SERC

Sharjah Equestrian and Racing Club, the first equestrian club in the UAE established in 1982, under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Dr. Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, hosted the show in its lovely outdoor arena, where the atmosphere is quite different to those held inside, people move about more, it feels more sociable and intimate, whilst the party feeling was enhanced by a constant supply of delicious canapes and liquid refreshments. The Higher Organising Committee Chairman is Sheikh Abdullah Bin Majid Al Qassimi, a very successful breeder of both show and racehorses. The E.S. prefix for his Emirates Stud is familiar to many, so with first-hand experience, it is not surprising he has his finger well on the pulse. In this he is ably assisted by Mr Sultan Khalifa Al Yahyaie, Show Director and Director General of SERC who has organised a great variety of successful events over the years.

Thanks to a great number of entries there was a very high turnout, and it was easy to see not only how popular but also how essential such shows are for exclusively local bred horses in the UAE’s highly competitive situation.

It was very interesting to see that the offspring of certain young locally bred stallions are having an influence on local bred breeding. It should be added that to make the Championships as competitive as possible the first three from each section returned to the ring, this meant that none of the championships were unanimous.

We greatly appreciate all the effort and hospitality we receive and send our thanks for the welcome TuttoArabi receives. We look forward to seeing everyone again soon. q

ARABIAN HORSE FESTIVAL 2022 | 2-4 DECEMBER

by Giorgia Mauri photos by Morhaf Al Assaf

We were honoured to attend the 4th Sharjah Kalba Arabian Horse Festival which took place in the emirate of Sharjah in United Arab Emirates, thanks to the invitation received from the “SERC” Sharjah Equestrian & Racing Club. This Arabian Horse Festival is traditionally held in Kalba, which is a city in the Emirate of Sharjah located on the east coast of the United Arab Emirates. Enjoying coastal access to the Gulf of Oman and beautiful waterways to mountainscapes, the city is separated from Sharjah by the Emirate of Fujairah, and as the Emirate of Sharjah is renowned as the Cultural Capital of the United Arabian Emirates, the city of Kalba is also renowned as one of the UAE’s most prominent eco-tourism spots.

It is always a great pleasure to come back to Kalba to see and enjoy the beauty of Arabian horses and the unique atmosphere of this place, as the show ground was traditionally located in the picturesque Kalba Corniche Park, directly on the beach and next to the ocean.

Organizers made the Festival pleasant, safe and memorable and they did their best to ensure that everyone felt welcome and that everything was prefectly prepared and going well. This year’s Festival was - just as the previous editions - a wonderful treat for the eyes and for the senses. The weather was perfect, the atmosphere of the Festival very enjoyable and it gathered many Arabian horses.

It was definitely a wonderful event worth remembering. q
