2020 CHIO Aachen Cancelled, Withdraws Option to Host in September

A 2020 CHIO Aachen will not take place. Originally scheduled for 29 May - 7 June 2020, CHIO Aachen was postponed due to the corona crisis. However the OC decided the health risk at a huge sport event is too great, even in autumn, and the plug has now been pulled on a 2020 edition.

"People’s health takes top priority," said Aachen show director Frank Kemperman. He went on to say that against the background of the national and international developments as well as the measures adopted by the Federal Government, it was decided to cancel the CHIO Aachen 2020.

The German federal government decided last week that mass events are not allowed to take place until 31 August 2020 to prevent the spreading of the corona virus.
