Now in its 41st edition, the Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz reigns supreme as the world’s only high-goal polo tournament played entirely on snow. Each winter, the frozen Lake St. Moritz transforms into a glittering arena where elite polo meets alpine glamour and unmistakable Swiss precision.

This true bucket-list event draws the game’s leading professionals, alongside 280 representatives of international media, high society and a cosmopolitan crowd that knows how to celebrate winter in snow polo style. More than 25,000 spectators flock to the ice, with free public admission to the vibrant Polo Village on the opening day, while tickets to the VIP hospitality and the legendary Gala Dinner are snapped up months in advance.

Yes, there is glitz. Yes, there is glamour. But at its heart lies breathtaking polo – played by world-class athletes and extraordinary ponies.
