Already one of the city's hottest events, the Urban Polo has solidified itself a spot at the Auckland Domain.
Around 3500 people attended the event at the weekend as it was hosted at the Domain for the first time.
Urban Polo founder Simon Wilson said the positive response has been overwhelming.
"We just played polo in a volcano and that's the first time horses have been back in the Domain since 1901," Wilson said. "It's probably the best event our company has ever done.
"The council have been amazing and we handed the field back in perfect condition. It's now going to become a fixture every year there."
