Wed 10th Jan 2024 The Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz 2024 The lake is frozen and construction commences soon The Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz 2024 (26 – 28 January 2024) is just under three weeks away. With the Engadine Valley resembling a winter wonderland and Lake St. Moritz completely frozen, all preparations are running at full speed and the construction of the extensive infrastructure is about to commence. Approximately 3,900 tonnes of material is used on the frozen lake, an impressive engineering feat! The snow polo action commences on Friday 26 January with the first three matches, culminating in the Final on Sunday 28 January 2024 with all the glitz and glamour you would expect from the world's only high-goal snow polo tournament. VIP tickets are still available for those looking for something special. It is first come, first served – the event always sells out. Tickets can be purchased with one click directly from the website here. As always, entry to the venue and the Polo Village is free. Once again, six high-profile teams are poised to engage in fierce competition, promising spectators awe-inspiring moments and breath-taking polo performances set against the iconic mountain backdrop. This year introduces three new Captains to the arena: Lidia Gauss (Team Mackage), Philipp Müller (Team Perrier-Jouët) and Jonathan Tidswell-Pretorius (Team St. Moritz). Also returning are: Melissa Ganzi (Team World Polo League), who became the first woman to win the prestigious tournament in 2019; Eduardo Greghi (Team The Kusnacht Practice) and Marc Ganzi (Team Flexjet).  The tournament magazine is available for download here.  The 2024 Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz Teams: World Polo League (16): Melissa Ganzi (0), Adrian Laplacette Jr. (6), Alejandro Novillo Astrada (7) & Grant Ganzi (3) St. Moritz - Top Of The World (16): Jonathan Tidswell-Pretorius (0), Tito Gaudenzi (2), David 'Pelon' Stirling (9) & Pelayo Berazadi (5) Mackage (16): Lidia Gauss (0), Jack Hyde (5), Isidro Strada (7) & Ryan Pemble (4) Perrier-Jouët (Handicap 16): Philipp Müller (0), Nacho Gonzalez (4), Hissam Hyder (4) & Max Charlton (6) The Kusnacht Practice (15): Eduardo Greghi (0), Hugo Taylor (4), Gonzalo Ferrari (7) & Nico San Roman (4) Flexjet (16): Santos Bollini (2), Marc Ganzi (1), Martin Jauregui (6) & Fred Mannix (7)   Photograph: The Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz 2024 begins in under three weeks.
