One of Australia’s most anticipated beachside events – the Pinctada Cable Beach Polo Festival – will be held in Broome on the weekend of 24/25 May, with special accommodation packages released for the long weekend.
The Pinctada Cable Beach Polo Festival 2014 will feature leading overseas and Australian polo players, and their ponies, vying for glory across two days of thrilling beach polo action that culminates in an international clash.
The polo ‘arena’ is unique, with the action and vigour taking place against a backdrop of the sparkling azure waters of the Indian Ocean, with Broome’s spectacular setting sun signalling the end of each day’s play.
This extraordinary sporting spectacle is free to watch picnic-style from the sand, but there is also an option to purchase tickets to the VIP marquee and mingle in barefoot elegance with the players and new friends from around the globe.
On Saturday night the celebration continues with Dinner Under The Stars and a limited number of tickets are available to join players on this magical night.
“It is one of the most exciting weekends imaginable”, says Pinctada Hotels owner & founder, Marilynne Paspaley.
“You don’t have to be a polo aficionado; rather it is just a wonderful way of experiencing the vibrancy and attractions of Broome. To party on Cable Beach as the sun sets and the stars come out is the one of the great Australian holiday experiences. No wonder beach polo is called the sexiest sport on earth.”
The ‘between chukka’ action will feature fashion themed spectator events on each day of the tournament – Sand Chic on Saturday and Style on the Sand on Sunday, with female winners receiving Paspaley jewellery and the male winners of Sand Chic and Style on the Sand receiving a limited edition 6-litre bottle of Bunnamagoo 1827 Cabernet Sauvignon, produced from the vines of historic Bunnamagoo Estate, one of the Paspaley family’s vineyards in central NSW.
The Cable Beach Polo is sponsored by Pinctada Hotels and Resorts, which has released special weekend packages for the Festival at its boutique Pinctada Cable Beach Resort.
