This year, the Living Museum of the Horse leads children at the heart of a magical forest, peopled by endearing and courageous inhabitants who are benefiting from the benevolence of fairies, custodians of the elements.
Who's enchantment? An elf? A goblin? The spirit of the forest? These strange characters who climb the dome of the large stables? Some fly over the back of their horses, others jump around and have strange conversations with their mounts, all are equally fascinated by the surrounding natural environment which make them travel...
Within the sumptuous decors of the
Large Stables of Chantilly is presented the 23rd edition of a beautiful equestrian year-end show: "Christmas, the horse and the child." Borrowed from mythology, the history of Mael, a young farmer in love with Pauline, the shepherdess, leads us in the land of love potions, Elves and fairies ... Eleven artists and twenty horses are shaking the dome with a lot of poetry, accuracy and balance, and sometimes humor.
