ABOUT
THE FESTIVAL

Launched 8 years ago as the Pacific Polo Cup, this classic event has evolved to become more inclusive and accessible for guests to learn and enjoy this spectacular game. 

While the glamour and prestige of the international polo circuit remain at the most premium level, the matches themselves have become the anchor element to a much broader level of engagement into both the global reach of the sport. The Vancouver International Polo Festival emerges as the next evolution of the sport’s involvement and commitment to community and culture building in Vancouver. 

Much like the Vancouver International Wine Festival, each year the event will have a sub-thematic representative of a country who’s cultural history and passion for polo runs deep.

This year we are celebrating the cuisine and sounds of Mexico.
