2009 Australian International 3-Day Event Facing Cancellation
The 2009 Australian International 3 Day Event looks set not to proceed this November, thanks to a squeeze on corporate sponsorship and a $100,000 budget shortfall.

“It’s a bitter disappointment, but faced with the financial realities of 2009 we’re being forced to make an extraordinarily tough decision.
