Jaipur is a polo city, and matches are played at the Rambagh Polo Ground during the winter season, with tickets sold for spectators.
Polo has been played in Jaipur since the early twentieth century, and the royal family's Rajasthan Polo Club hosts matches at the Rambagh Polo Ground, close to Rambagh Palace. The main season runs through the cooler months, with fixtures and tournaments announced locally each year, so dates and ticket availability should be confirmed with the club or through the Jaipur Polo Season announcements. Spectator seating is available at ticketed matches, and hotels in the city often arrange passes. Treat prices and dates as seasonal and variable. It is a spectator and cultural experience rather than a participatory adventure, though riding lessons for visitors are sometimes arranged through the club and local stables.
