SLAM-BAM DREAM-TEAM AT FEI WORLD EQUESTRIAN CHAMPIONSHIPS AACHEN 2026

We covered it once in 2006 and another time in 2014, loved every second, and now we’re back for more.

HORSE TIMES is landing at the FEI World Equestrian Championships Aachen 2026 with an all-female slam-bam dream team.

Armed with sharp eyes, grandstand passes, great wits, and zero tolerance for average coverage, meet our ground crew:

Adriana van Tilburg: Pedigree & Performance Trailblazer

If there’s a world-class sport horse on the grounds, Miss van Tilburg likely knows its entire family tree by heart. We know her well from her endless roving trips across the international circuit, where her wonderfully conversational style makes her a joy to read. An international equestrian journalist and bloodline specialist, she turns complex breeding dynamics into cracking good stories, bringing you the tell behind the tale.

Ina El Kobbia: Insider & Advocate

A seasoned voice for HORSE TIMES in Germany, Miss El Kobbia has been a cherished part of our inner circle for over two decades. She brings a deep passion for equine welfare, therapeutic riding, and the broader sport. A sharp, knowledgeable Jurist, wonderfully articulate, and always in the loop, she’ll be on the ground bringing you her lively impressions from the Dressage events.

Louise Dahlstrom: Creative Edge

Bringing a fresh editorial flair to the team, Miss Dahlström is all about spotting the moments everyone else misses. We first crossed paths with her through the Falsterbo Horse Show, and while she might be quietly shy off-camera, her work speaks volumes. Whether it’s capturing high-stakes arena action or the quiet, candid magic behind the scenes, her eye for detail ensures our Aachen coverage looks effortlessly cool. Keep an eye out for her signature black-and-white photography.

Baroness Ludwiga von Korff: Lens Master

Ludwiga von Korff doesn’t just photograph horses; she captures their character. A familiar face at Soers and a long-time friend of HORSE TIMES, and a Jacques Toffi partner, she previously teamed up with us for our coverage of the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games in Normandy in 2014. She’s as comfortable navigating Aachen’s bustling arenas as she is documenting Germany’s finest studs. Expect breathtaking action shots and sharp visual storytelling from her seasoned lens.

Give our ladies a wave when you see them, we’re there to make sure your stories shine.
