Shanghai will host an international equestrian competition for the first time and more than 100 sporting events are already lined up on the 2014 sporting calendar.
The Global Champions Tour, a show jumping competition, will be held in front of China Art Museum in the Pudong New Area from June 6 to 8.
The event will feature top riders from around the world. It will be the first time a Chinese mainland city has hosted an international equestrian event.
“We are excited to introduce the event as equestrian goes in line with Shanghai’s city image,” said Chen Yiping, a Shanghai Sports Bureau spokesman. “It also adds more diversity to local sports events.”
The city will also host the FINA Diving World Cup for the first time. It will be held from July 15 to 20 at Oriental Sports Center.
