The famous dancing white stallions are coming to Pendleton for one performance only at 7 p.m. Tuesday, July 15, at the Pendleton Convention Center.

Immortalized by Disney’s “The Miracle of the White Stallions,” the Lipizzaner Stallions are on their 33rd anniversary tour. In 1970, Producer Gary Lashinsky created the arena attraction, starring the famous stallions from Austria.

Many horses and riders were brought from Europe to perform in this unique family-oriented arena attraction. All new music, choreography and routines have been incorporated in this anniversary edition with a major emphasis on the historical background and foundation of the Lipizzaner breed, from its original breeding and use as a horse of war to a horse of nobility and aristocracy to a living form of equestrian art. The show emulates the Spanish Riding School of Vienna, Austria, in its presentation of Lipizzans, and maintains a traditional as well as entertaining performance similar in many ways to what you would see at the Spanish Riding School of Vienna.

The tour features 12 to14 stallions performing selected maneuvers including the capriole, courbette, coupade, piaffe, pirouette and levade.

The conclusion of the performance is the traditional Grand Quadrille, featuring six to eight Lipizzaner Stallions with their riders performing an intricate, equine ballet, exhibiting maneuvers through the highest level of dressage. The Lipizzans prance, march and intricately weave their way across the floor to the music of the masters in a spectacular ballet of four-footed equine dancers.

Tickets are $19.50 for adults and $17.50 for children younger than 12 or senior citizens older than 60. Tickets are available at the Country Sunshine Hallmark Gold Crown, Pendleton Grain Growers and at Tickets.com.
