For Jumping Mechelen, this marks the end of a special chapter \u2014 but definitely not the end of our story. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Over the past 40 years, Jumping Mechelen has grown into a top international event where amateurs and world-class riders shine side by side. Every year, between Christmas and New Year, more than 85,000 horse lovers gather in Mechelen for a magical holiday celebration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Over the past 40 years, Jumping Mechelen has grown into a top international event where amateurs and world-class riders shine side by side. Every year, between Christmas and New Year, more than 85,000 horse lovers gather in Mechelen for a magical holiday celebration. <br\/><br\/>A unique bubble filled with top sport, festive vibes, spectacular shows \u2014 and good company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, it\u2019s sad to know we\u2019ll have to say goodbye to the Nekkerhal in 2032. But we don\u2019t see it as an end \u2014 we see it as the start of something new.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe still have seven amazing editions to go in the Nekkerhal,\u201d says Van Lent. \u201cThat\u2019s already guaranteed by contract. And in the meantime, we\u2019ll have plenty of time to dream, plan, and build the future of Jumping Mechelen \u2014 in a new location where we can create magic all over again, together with our fans, partners and friends.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-90f50835 wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jumping-mechelen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Nekkerhal-Mechelen-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"Nekkerhal Mechelen\" class=\"uag-image-16758\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" title=\"Nekkerhal Mechelen\" loading=\"lazy\" role=\"img\"><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-383a0e27 alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-02312dee alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><div class=\"uagb-container-inner-blocks-wrap\"><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past 40 years, Jumping Mechelen has grown into a top international event where amateurs and world-class riders shine side by side.
