Saseline, showed up to take part in the historic event. Also the Mayor of Copenhagen made an appearance by formally opening the tournament.

Four teams had been lined up to compete for the trophy, but in the end it was Team Maserati who won it against Team Shamballa Jewels, after Ryan Pemble converted a penalty with just 15 seconds to go in the very last chukka to win it 9-8.
In the subsidiary final Rossini Caviar Team Stockholm won another thrilling match against Care Service Team Oslo. Final score: 8-5.

Gaps in between the polo matches were very cleverly occupied by various types of entertainment including a seqway polo match, celebrity polo with danish celebrities Thomas Skov and Knaldperlen.
