Cartier Queen's Cup
The grand June occasion of English polo: a large field and a sold-out final in Windsor Great Park.
Why it is here
Nineteen teams entered the 2026 Cartier Queen's Cup. After 47 matches, Balanz Capital beat Aureus 17–7 in the final on Sunday 14 June in front of a sold-out crowd on the Queen's Ground (Polo Times, 2026-06-15). Living Sports reports that Claudio Porcel's side went through the tournament unbeaten (2026-06-15), and Guards Polo Club notes it was Balanz Capital's debut in the tournament (2026-06-23). Dates for 2027 have not yet been published, so none are listed. Score drivers: social 8.8 from the sold-out final; prestige 8.5 and sporting level 8.4 from the size of the high-goal field. Exclusivity and experience are not scored.
Who it is for
Polo patrons and social spectators who want a high-goal final in Windsor Great Park.
