What if Christmas had disappeared? That’s the premise of the new show by the Château de Chantilly Equestrian Company. For the end of the year, the Grandes Écuries are transformed into the Isle of Rains, a windswept land in Ireland where the holidays have been wiped out by a spell cast by the Halloween Witch…
An enchanting Christmas show at the Château de Chantilly
In this magical show, you’ll follow the adventures of a young boy who sets out in search of lost magic. On his journey, he’ll sail the seas, face his fears, and encounter fairies and mischievous elves, all in the hope of finding Santa Claus. But the Halloween Witch is still lurking, and she won’t make things easy for our hero.
Throughout the show, eight horseback riders, a singer, two equestrian acrobats, and about fifteen horses will bring this magical story to life. Here, the acts don’t simply follow one another for their own sake: dressage, free-range work, and equestrian vaulting advance the story step by step, leaving you in awe.
With its costumes, sumptuous set design, music, and of course the horses, this Christmas tale will completely transport you. After the show, we highly recommend exploring the château—which will be fully decorated—as well as the stables.
