In August 2022, equestrian enthusiasts from all over the world will turn their attention to Denmark and Herning. Danish equestrian sport will be hosting the prestigious World Championships in four equestrian disciplines – ECCO FEI World Championships 2022 Herning Denmark. The event organisers behind the World Championships experiences great support for the event, and most recently Helgstand Dressage has signed up for a main sponsorship.
– I find it amazing to experience the great support we get from the largest Danish players in the industry, says Casper Cassøe who together with Jens Trabjerg are the organisers of Herning2022.
– We experience that the World Championships has made everyone stand together in many ways which is very important in these difficult times. We are really looking forward to the World Championships in August 2022, he states.
Helgstrand VIP Lounge
The agreement between the Herning2022 company and Helgstrand Dressage includes several elements. Helgstrand Dressage will be the naming sponsor for the large VIP lounge inside the stadium - HELGSTRAND VIP LOUNGE, and in addition, Helgstrand Dressage will be the presenting sponsor for all Herning2022 competitions in dressage inside Stutteri Ask Stadium. Helgstrand Dressage will also be presenting sponsor for several of the jumping competitions in the same place.
– We very much look forward to helping to put Denmark on the world map during the World Championships in Herning, Andreas Helgstrand states and continues: – The World Championship is of huge importance to Denmark, and we would like to support creating such a large and accomplished event as possible.
Helgstrand Dressage is setting up a large, VIP Lounge of their own just outside the stadium. It will be used to present the many branches within the Helgstrand Group.
– We will soon start planning an exciting concept for the Helgstrand Lounge. The framework that is being made available seems to be outstanding. Our task will be to take advantage of the opportunities and make Helgstrand Dressage visible during the World Championships. That visibility is clearly important, but it is just as important for us that we help to support the World Championships in Herning, Andreas Helgstrand concludes.
