The Royal Moroccan Federation of Equestrian Sports (FRMSE) will organize the 24th Hassan II «Tbourida» Trophy, Morocco's Traditional Equestrian Arts Championship, from May 26 to June 1, 2025, at Dar Es Salam in Rabat. Twenty-four «Sorbas» (troupes) will compete, including eighteen senior teams (17 years and older) and six junior teams (12-16 years). For the first time, the Southern Zone will be represented in the junior category by Hassan El AAIDA's troupe from Guelmim. The competition features two distinct phases: qualifiers from May 26-29, followed by finals on May 31 and June 1. The top ten senior Sorbas and five junior Sorbas will advance to the finals to compete for the 2025 Moroccan Championship title. This edition will feature international equestrian shows by renowned French artist Lorenzo during the final weekend. The FRMSE has also signed a partnership agreement to promote Moroccan equestrian craftsmanship in collaboration with several government entities, including the State Secretariat for Crafts and Social Economy. Tbourida, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage in December 2021, represents Morocco's rich equestrian tradition. The kingdom currently counts more than 300 Tbourida troupes affiliated with the FRMSE and 5,900 horses dedicated to Traditional Equestrian Arts throughout the country.
