A huge social occasion that draws European royalty, A-lister jet set and the top polo players, it will take place between 29-31 January 2016. If you’re up for staying a little longer, then the White Turf horse racing event runs for the first three Sundays in February.
Take it all in from the comfort of your lake-view suite at the Carlton, one of St Moritz’s most luxurious hotels, full of gorgeous wooden panelling, roaring fires and a sumptuous spa suite, including outdoor heated pools. Their Polo Gold package includes a three night stay, two day race pass, as well as butler service, 24 hour limo service and access to the spa.
