AUSTRALIA’SINTERNATIONAL3 DAY EVENT

Hi AllIt’s nearly here! The arenas are looking amazing – thanks to the TLC of the Adelaide City Council team, Course designer, Wayne Copping’s fences are being moved into place in the park, the entries are in and the stage is set for a fantastic event.! As well as the top equestrian talent competing, we have an extensive list of special guests and international superstars for you to meet this year - and the entertainment line-up is fabulous. Look through the programme in this issue and you’ll see we have so much to see, do, try, buy and experience. The new Twilight Jumping and Free Friday Party in the Park which has been supported by the Adelaide City Council, will give everyone the opportunity to experience top class equestrian action and a fun party-style environment for free.

To enhance the ‘family day atmosphere of the Qantas Cross Country day we are giving FREE entry to all children under 16 accompanied by an adult.

Also in this issue are details about our Auction with many items available here that “Money just can’t buy” including an Australian flag signed by the entire Australian Olympic team and some gold medallists. These items are going to be highly sought after so be sure to lodge your bid.

Speaking of fast and furious, sales of tickets for the Eventers Party on Saturday night are over 400 now and we have had to extend our liquor licence . There are very few left so don’t miss out! Party band Acoustic Juice will be playing and I have heard whispers they’ll be joined on stage by some equestrian celebrities who will rock your socks off! Tickets to the Southern Stars Saddlery Eventers Party through Nominate.com.au

Other ‘Sellout’ s this year are the very popular ticket and accommodation packages – and I believe the grandstand for Sunday will be sold out by tomorrow arvo. Very few tickets are left .

Tickets are on sale at Ticketek or at the Fullarton Road gates each day of the event!

Gillian Rolton, Event Director

We’re feeling pretty proud of ourselves having pulled off somewhat of a coup with the announcement of City Holden as our ‘Official Vehicle Partner’ this year. City Holden is the perfect partner with its premium Retail Sales and Service operations based in Adelaide’s East End – Grenfell Street City, adjacent to the east parklands.

City Holden will provide up to ten vehicles including at least seven ‘all new Colorado’s’ for VIP and Official’s transport during the event as well as providing a trade stand, static vehicle display and a two Colorado utes as part of a specially designed jump in the cross country part of the event.

Dealer Principal for City Holden, Julian Newton said how delighted he was that City Holden had made the decision to be the Official Vehicle Partner... “The event is on our back doorstep and right in City Holden’s marketing heartland. We love the fact this is an Olympic standard event with the best riders and horses competing. As a international event, it’s also got a great family feel and the opportunity to reinforce local flavouring with world class Holden product and sponsorship by Adelaide’s No 1 Holden business is an opportunity that is just too good to pass up” he said. “A lot of people are unaware that City Holden in Adelaide’s East End, is recognised as a top three Holden dealer nationally and has been for a number of years. The Australian International 3 Day Event presents an ideal branding opportunity for our business, complimented by the chance to showcase a number of class leading Holden products and particularly Colorado – a perfect automotive partner for anyone with an interest in horses!”

City Holden has operations in Adelaide’s East End with sales of Holden vehicles available from the 223 Grenfell Street Showroom and comprehensive mechanical service from the recent expansively renovated, facility at 252 Pirie Street. City Holden also has new & used car sales and service operations from branches based at 14 Kensington Road, Rose Park and 329 North East Road at Hillcrest. Vehicle purchasers can also find a beautiful selection of used cars and a service workshop at the long and successfully established dealership situated at 129 Main North Road Nailsworth.

The event organisers, competitors and international equestrian community would like to extend a very warm and very sincere THANK YOU to the many people who volunteer their time, enthusiasm, energy and passion to make this event possible. The people who generously give of their wisdom and efforts to the Sport Committee – thank you all. And to the many people who volunteer their time to assist in running the event, those people who assist Officials, sit at all the Cross Country Jumps all day, answer questions, and take on the vitally important jobs required to run the 2012 Australian International 3 Day Event – we thank you very much! Enjoy the weekend – it’s going to be FUN!
