Discovering the Hippodrome Paris-Vincennes: living heritage of the trot

Nestled in the heart of the Bois de Vincennes, the Hippodrome Paris-Vincennes is much more than a mecca for horse racing: it is a true monument of living heritage, dedicated to a spectacular and emblematic discipline of the French horse heritage—trotting races. Created in 1863, the racecourse has since become the temple of harnessed and mounted trotting. Every year, it hosts the biggest competitions, including the prestigious Prix d'Amérique Legend Race, the world championship for harness racing. Its imposing architecture, its panoramic tribunes, and its mythical track make it a place as captivating for enthusiasts as for the curious. Trotting races, a singular discipline where the horse must maintain a specific pace without ever galloping, are a clever mix of tradition, sport, strategy... and emotion. It is quite an art, passed on from generation to generation, which embodies the richness of the French horse heritage. Visitors will have the opportunity to attend nine trotting races, including the famous Quinté+ race of the day, in an atmosphere that is both sporty and friendly. Whether you are a history enthusiast, horse lover or simply curious, the Hippodrome Paris-Vincennes offers you a unique opportunity to experience a moment out of time, between heritage, passion and live entertainment. Come discover the trot, come live the racecourse!
