Amadeus Horse Indoors
The Amadeus Horse Indoors has been an international equestrian event that has been taking place in the Salzburgarena and the Salzburg Exhibition Center since 2006 .

In addition, a World Cup test in vaulting and international jumping competitions CSI 4 *, CSIU25-A) will be held.
history
At the premiere, the tournament was advertised as an international show jumping tournament in the CSI 2 * category. In the following year the prize money was increased, a CSI 3 * and an international dressage tournament in the CSI 3 * category were held. From that year until 2013, a local auto dealership, the Pappas Group, was the tournament's name sponsor. In 2014, Edelsteinmanufaktur Mevisto took over the name sponsorship, so the full name of the tournament is now Mevisto Amadeus Horse Indoors .
As a result, the tournament grew into the most extensive equestrian event in Austria. From 2008 dressage and show jumping were held at an international 4 * level. The European Youngster Cup has been in Salzburg since 2007, and the final was held here for the first time in 2012. For the first time in 2009 the vaulters made a guest appearance in Salzburg, one year later Salzburg was already a station of the newly founded Vaulting World Cup.
