For its 40th birthday, the Mondial du Lion – World Championships for 6- and 7-year-old eventing horses – becomes the Mondial du Lion Crédit Mutuel. This special anniversary celebrates equestrian excellence and the international reach of the event.

A Partnership that Makes Sense

Crédit Mutuel, a long-standing partner of many sporting events, is committed to supporting both sport and the non-profit world. Its involvement with the Mondial du Lion naturally follows this approach: showcasing the equestrian industry while highlighting the local territory.

“The Mondial du Lion is an event that brings people together: world-class riders, equestrian enthusiasts, newcomers, families, and volunteers. Supporting this anniversary edition was an obvious choice. We share the same values of commitment, proximity, and enthusiasm,”
emphasizes Philippe Tuffreau, President of Crédit Mutuel Anjou.

  • Everyone who makes sport possible: volunteers, organizers, clubs, and associations.

Support for the Future

By becoming Title Partner, Crédit Mutuel contributes to the success of an event that welcomes over 45,000 spectators each year and extends its influence far beyond France.

“As we celebrate our 40th birthday, the support of Crédit Mutuel allows us to look to the future of the Mondial du Lion with ambition,”
says Yves-Marie Vandamme, President of Lion Équestre – Mondial du Lion.

The Mondial du Lion Crédit Mutuel promises to be an outstanding anniversary edition: a must-attend event for equestrian enthusiasts and a launchpad for the talents of tomorrow.
