As the countdown to the opening of the 2010 FEI Alltech World Equestrian Games continues,
select tickets for dressage, endurance, eventing, jumping and reining competitions are now available
at a 30 percent savings. The reduced prices are available through September 6.
This special offer is in effort to encourage Kentuckians and non-equestrian audiences to
experience the Games. Grounds Passes are only $25 and offer a family-friendly, affordable
way to experience the Games. Children 12 and under are admitted free when accompanied by
a paying adult.
In addition to viewing the world championships, all event tickets allow spectators to experience
world-class food, shopping, music, the Equine Village, with world-renowned equine exhibitors,
clinicians and demonstrations and the exciting, family-friendly EquiMania, as well as the
Kentucky Experience Tourism exhibit and the Alltech Experience Pavilion.
Parking for 10,000 vehicles is available on the grounds for only $20. Shuttles are also
available at select hotels and Lextran is offering roundtrip transportation to the Horse
Park from its Vine Street Terminal in downtown Lexington for only $5.
Coverage of the Games will be broadcast to a world-wide viewing audience of approximately
500 million viewers for 6 ½ hours on NBC Sports, which marks the largest commitment
to network coverage of equestrian sport in U.S. television history.
Sixty-two countries and nearly 1,000 athletes have expressed an interest in competing at
the Games. More than 270,000 tickets to the Games have been sold in more than 50 countries
and all 50 U.S. States. And approximately 1,000 journalists, representing more than
30 countries, will be covering the Games.
