Event Details
Pferd Bodensee is the largest equestrian trade fair in the tri-border region of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland — bringing together over 400 exhibitors from 19 nations under one roof.
Held every two years at the Messe Friedrichshafen on the shores of Lake Constance, Pferd Bodensee transforms the exhibition halls into a vibrant equestrian world with four riding arenas, a health forum, and an extensive trade show. For Equinetree, it was the perfect opportunity to connect with the heart of the German-speaking equestrian community.
The Tri-Border Equestrian Meeting Point
With around 270 horses on the fairgrounds, four riding arenas for competitions and demonstrations, and a lifestyle shopping sector alongside the trade exhibition, Pferd Bodensee offers a unique blend of sport, education, and commerce. From the equine health forum to the evening gala 'Im Takt der Pferde' (In the Rhythm of Horses), the event caters to riders, breeders, and enthusiasts across all disciplines.
Equinetree at the Fair
We presented our full Uppeal product range at the exhibition, engaging with visitors from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland who were curious about plant-based alternatives to traditional leather tack. The fair's international and diverse audience gave us valuable feedback and reinforced the growing demand for sustainable equestrian equipment across the region.
Pferd Bodensee confirmed what we see at every event: riders across Europe are ready for change and genuinely excited about materials that are kinder to animals and the planet.
