It's eighty-three degrees, the sun is shining and you step onto the sands of Miami Beach to hear the subtle waves crashing and fixed-wing airplanes overhead. It may seem like just another beautiful day at the beach until you come to Collins Park, which is now a known destination for equestrian sports: showjumping and polo alike. This year, #BeachPoloMiami took over the Longines Global Champions Tour event set up and transformed it into an ever-so-chic and elegant swanky daytime arena polo event. The VIP tent was buzzing all day long with high energy music, announcing, and the best of the best food and drinks.
World Polo League's Miami Beach Polo is the world's largest beach polo tournament founded by Tito Gaudenzi, CEO of Lifestyle companies. Along with three incredible days of polo competition on the beach, one can be sure to experience upscale entertainment, excellent dining, upscale style, and fashion, and celebrity sightings. Sponsors and partners of this event include the City of Miami Beach, David Yurman, La Martina, Douglas Elliman South Florida, Karma Automotive, and Grand Champions Polo Club. The World Polo League Beach Polo Cup is part of a group of world-class polo events such as Kitzbühel Snow Polo World Cup, Cortina Snow Polo Cup, Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz, Aspen Snow Polo, as well as events at their host Polo Club, Grand Champions Polo Club in Wellington, Florida.
