Bartolome Mitre Cup

About the Tournament

The Bartolomé Mitre Cup is one of the Argentine polo calendar's most respected 15–20 goal tournaments, organised by the Asociación Argentina de Polo (AAP) and held at the Campo Argentino de Polo in Buenos Aires during the March–April Argentine autumn season. Named after Bartolomé Mitre, the Argentine statesman and journalist who founded the newspaper La Nación, the cup carries historic cultural resonance. At 15–20 goal, it sits in the competitive tier immediately below the Argentine Open and Triple Crown events, attracting strong professional and patron teams who are building toward top-goal competition. The Mitre Cup is prized for its competitive purity — serious polo in a less commercially pressured environment than the Triple Crown events.
