A symphony of shadows and lights

Equinoxe is a spellbinding one-hour show that celebrates the shadow and light of a single day in eighteen captivating acts.

The show begins with a mysterious sunset ceremony followed by eight breathtaking acts that conjure the magic of the night. Then, like an enchanted awakening, the following eight acts lead the audience into the day, from dawn to dusk, bathed in divine light.

This equestrian show defies the limits of the imagination and sheds light on the remarkable bond between horses, donkeys and ponies, and their eight talented riders. This artistic performance combines the elegance of the Haute École Équestre with other creative forms, from equestrian acrobatics with Anthony Pinte to circus arts, masts and fabrics with talented Moroccan acrobat Noureddine Khalid and spellbinding vocal performances by Mathilde Pouteau, a rider with the Compagnie équestre and co-creator of this show with Sophie Bienaimé, director of Les Grandes Écuries, and incredible costumes by Monika Mucha. Equinox will enthral audiences of all ages.

Whether you’re looking for a summer family outing or a poetic experience, this symphony harmoniously blends night with day in a perfect fusion of equinox and equestrianism that will blow your mind!
