White Turf St. Moritz 2027 VIP Lounges & Stay
Three Sundays of racing on the frozen lake — flat races, trotting and skijoring — watched from the hospitality lounges, with your residence and flight arranged around them.
Each February, St. Moritz races horses on its frozen lake. White Turf brings flat races, trotting and skijoring — riders on skis drawn by galloping horses — onto the ice of Lej da San Murezzan, against the mountains of the Upper Engadine.
In 2027 the race days fall on three Sundays: 7, 14 and 21 February. The Saturday before each race day is a family day on the lake. White Turf closes the run of winter events on the ice that begins in January with the Snow Polo World Cup and The I.C.E.
Opera Prestige arranges access to the hospitality lounges together with the rest of the stay: a residence in St. Moritz, the flight into Samedan and a chauffeur, coordinated by a single contact.
