CAVALLUNA – Gate to the Otherworld

Europe’s renowned equestrian spectacular CAVALLUNA: Gate to the Otherworld makes its Asian debut in Hong Kong from Sept. 8 and Sept. 10-13, 2026, at Kai Tak Arena, Kai Tak Sports Park. Presented by The Hong Kong Jockey Club as part of its Year of the Horse campaign, the production combines world-class horsemanship, theatrical storytelling, music, dance, and visual effects in a family-friendly live experience.

The show follows the magical journey of Meerin, a young sorceress whose gift of bringing drawings to life leads her into an adventure of courage, self-discovery, and wonder. Audiences will witness breathtaking performances from 54 magnificent horses representing eight breeds, including Lusitanos (Portugal), Andalusians / Pura Raza Española (Spain), Friesians (Netherlands), Arabians (Middle East), Welsh Ponies (Wales), and Mini Shetland Ponies (Shetland Islands), alongside internationally acclaimed riders and performers.

Directed by Emmy-nominated visionary Klaus Hillebrecht, CAVALLUNA has captivated more than nine million visitors across over 30 European cities. Highlights include spectacular trick riding, the dramatic Hungarian Post, elegant liberty performances, cinematic staging, and a live international dance ensemble, creating an immersive theatrical experience that celebrates the extraordinary bond between humans and horses.
