Cavalia Horses Headed for Brisbane!

On Tuesday, February 19, 42 majestic horses, stars of the multimedia and acrobatic spectacular Cavalia: A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse, will arrive by semi-trailers in Brisbane for the first time after a relaxing 21-daystay at Eastern Creek Animal Quarantine Station in Sydney.

Horsezone will be there to meet the horses and capture their arrival, so be sure to stay tuned for news and photos!

Prior to the mandatory government quarantine in New South Wales, the four-legged performers flew across the Pacific Ocean from the show’s last stop in San Diego, California, aboard a chartered MD-11 aircraft equipped with comfortable boxes. For the transoceanic voyage to the Land Down Under, the Cavalia herd, constituted of 10 breeds hailing from Canada, Europe, and the USA,was accompanied by a dedicated team of Cavalia’s equine specialists, including head trainer Gregory Molina, a veterinarian, two health technicians and six grooms.

Cavalia features 42 horses and 36 riders, aerialists, acrobats, dancers, and musicians from around the world, performing under a 35-metre-tall White Big Top. In the show, spectators are drawn into a dream-like world, as horses and artists interact in front of a constantly changing 60-metre-wide digital projection screen.
