The Palm Beach International Equestrian Center in Wellington, Fla., has gotten a facelift.
“Much needed upgrades” have been made to the home of the Winter Equestrian Festival as the Global Equestrian Group invested in improvements to stabling and rings, including the center stage International Arena where the biggest show jumping grands prix are held. Global Equestrian Group, which includes Ludger Beerbaum Stables and the majority of shares of Andreas Helgstrand Dressage, is supported by Waterland Private Equity, which works with entrepreneurs to realize their ambitions for growth. The previous owners of PBIEC are also part of the Global group.

In addition to the arenas and stabling, improvements were made to fencing, in response to a survey of WEF competitors; longeing areas, seating and wash racks.
Other projects are set for completion by the beginning of the WEF in January.
