 The 2021 Fieracavalli has been unquestionably the edition of the revival, strongly desired and promoted with pride by Federico Sboarina, Mayor of Verona, Maurizio Danese, President of Veronafiere, Giovanni Mantovani, CEO of Veronafiere and Armando Di Ruzza, Fieracavalli's Event manager. To them, go our most heartfelt thank you for hosting and backing both competitions. The International B Cup and the European Championship met with resounding success, inside a Pala Volkswagen stormed by the public and professionals. Everyone worked hard, taking care of each other despite the hardships of the moment. But, what won in Verona first and foremost was the equestrian sport sublimated by the elegance and the beauty of the purebred Arabian Horse. Arabian Insider and Arabian Essence, among the best-known service videos in the industry, recorded dizzying numbers, with peaks of nearly 150,000 spectators who watched the event live from all over the world on their smartphones. We on the AHM team are happy to have made our presence as a media partner with other famous publications in the industry. Our greatest wish is certainly to see you all again in the new year in the company of whom we love the most: the purebred Arabian horse!
