The 2014 FEI World Cup Finals in Lyon was held between April 17 and April 21, 2014. It was the final of the Show jumping and Dressage World Cup series. The finals were held in the Lyon Euroexpo.

Denmark's Nanna Skodborg Merrald was scheduled to compete, but had to withdraw after her horse failed to pass the veterinary test.

Dressage Grand Prix Freestyle
The second competition of the Dressage World Cup final was the Grand Prix Freestyle, held on the afternoon of Sunday, April 21. Charlotte Dujardin won her first World Cup title with Valegro. Dujardin also set the new highest winning score, becoming the first rider to score above 90% at the World Cup final.
