The European Dressage Championships 2025 take place in Crozet, France (27–31 August), with the continent’s top combinations going head-to-head for team and individual honours and here, we bring you everything you need to know about how to watch the European Dressage Championships on TV
It promises to be one of the closest battles in years. Can Great Britain defend the team crown they claimed at Riesenbeck in 2023, or will Olympic champions Germany reclaim top spot?
Belgium are chasing a historic first medal, spearheaded by rising stars Justin Verboomen and Zonik Plus, while Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour, Lottie Fry and Isabell Werth headline a stellar cast in the hunt for individual honours. The stage is set for a showdown where even the smallest mistake could decide gold.
Whether you’re travelling to Crozet, tuning in via livestream, or just keeping tabs on the results, Horse & Hound will be your go-to source for everything you need to stay up to date. From breaking news and in-depth reports to expert analysis, interviews, and photography, we’ll be covering it all as it happens.
How to watch the European Dressage Championships on TV
If you’re wondering how to watch the European Dressage Championships on TV, each day will be livestreamed on FEI.TV via ClipMyHorse.TV Subscriptions to this livestream service start from £17.33 per month when paying for an annual subscription (£207.99).

How to watch the European Dressage Championships from anywhere
Not in the UK right now? You don’t have to miss out on any of the action from the European Dressage Championships.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) will alter your device’s IP address to make it appear to be in a different country, allowing you to access your usual streaming services from anywhere in the world. It’s great for watching horse sport on the move, and it’s also handy even if you’re watching at home. VPNs are designed with internet security in mind, creating encrypted connections that keep your data safe from third parties and improve streaming speeds by preventing bandwidth ‘throttling’ from your internet service provider.
There are many VPN providers out there, with some more reliable and safe than others. We’d suggest using a paid-for service such as NordVPN, which is the best VPN in the world according to our colleagues at TechRadar.
How to use a VPN
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. NordVPN is the one we recommend.
2. Open up the VPN app and choose the location of the service you wish to access.
3. Then head over to ClipMyHorse on your browser or device and enjoy the livestream.
