Exciting Polo Action in Sellin, from 4th to 6th October 2024: 8th German Beach Polo Championship Enthralls 20,000 Spectators

The 8th German Beach Polo Championship in Sellin delivered pure polo action from 4th to 6th October 2024! Set against the impressive backdrop of the Sellin pier, the event attracted around 20,000 visitors to the Baltic seaside.

Six teams from around the world and over 60 polo horses captivated the audience with thrilling chukkas. As is tradition, the tournament kicked off on Thursday with a colourful polo parade through the resort town, accompanied by the „Ostseefanfaren“ band and the Sellin fire brigade. Mayor Andreas Käske warmly welcomed the players to the beach arena.

The sporting highlight was complemented by a lively Oktoberfest in the VIP tent. Spectators in the public area enjoyed the games up close and free of charge, while top Berlin chefs presented culinary delights in the VIP section.
