Sunset Polo at Ham Polo Club

Gaucho and Camino Real bring a taste of Argentina to London in aid of Adolfo Cambiaso’s Fundación Ideas del Sur charity

On the 1st July, Gaucho will bring the essence of Argentina’s national sport to Ham Polo Club, showcasing Argentine passion for polo at London’s last surviving polo club.  


Sunset Polo, in aid of the Fundación Ideas del Sur charity will see the world’s best polo player Adolfo Cambiaso play on each of the three participating teams in a “round robin” match, playing in turn on the Gaucho / Veuve Clicquot, Camino Real and Horseware Ireland teams.


Adolfo will appear at Gaucho Sunset Polo for the second year, following his stunning performance as the Team Gaucho captain in a tightly fought match against Camino Real in 2010.  The main match will start at 7pm.  


Gates open at 5pm, with the event offering entertainment for all, with “have-a-go” polo sessions, bike polo matches, junior polo games and a tutored wine tasting by Gaucho’s head sommelier.  To round off the perfect summer day, Gaucho will host a glamorous after-party with live electro-tango music and Argentine asado.  Guests will also have the chance to bid for money-can’t-buy prizes in an auction to raise money the Fundación Ideas del Sur. 


Combining the best in Argentine food and wine with the sophisticated glamour of Buenos Aires, Gaucho is now the ultimate dining destination and an established ambassador for Argentine culture and sport.  Gaucho, who launched the popular O2 polo event in London in February 2011, is proud to continue their support for the sport of polo internationally through their association with Sunset Polo.


Tickets for the event start at £10 for general entry. For the full Argentine experience, Gaucho is offering luxury all-day packages, allowing guests to add to the day with a wine master class, 5-course lunch at Gaucho Richmond and access to the Veuve Clicquot champagne lounge.
