How to watch FEI World Championships 2026: free live streams, TV channels, schedule | Daily Reports Online
FEI World Championships 2026 live streams see Germany – the event’s most successful nation – host for only the second time, with the city of Aachen holding proceedings 20 years after initially doing so and veteran Michael Jung spearheading their hopes for more medals.
Some of the world’s best riders and steeds will head to Aachen for nearly two weeks of competition, with medals set to be handed out across six disciplines: dressage, para dressage, driving, eventing, jumping and vaulting. 24 golds will be handed out this time around and, after surprisingly topping the medal table at their own games four years ago, Denmark will be hoping to replicate their success south of the border.
The likes of the USA, Great Britain, Netherlands, France and Belgium will also be confident of upsetting the hosts at the 10th edition of the games, which kick off with the dressage Grand Prix on Tuesday 11 and Wednesday 12. And, in addition to glory in its own right this August, riders and nations will have half an eye on qualification for the 2028 Olympics, too.
