The Season Set-Up Horse Show was yet another reminder of why we continue to produce a series like this one.

Everything came together this week to create yet another safe, challenging and rewarding experience out in Ponoka.

From the beginning, the goal with Ponoka Indoor Series was to create a space that was encouraging to those new to our sport and still accommodating to those looking for constructive mileage. Our team is beyond proud to provide exactly that.

For 8 years now, at the , we've seen everyone from past Olympians focused on their next-gen roster, to riders stepping into their very first show ring. We thank our talented team of officials, staff and dedicated sponsors for making it all possible.

Wishing all a terrific season ahead - from near and far we're always cheering you on!

It's Quiet, Too Quiet...
2026 has arrived and we've got quite the year ahead - It's time to fill you in!

-- The Ponoka Indoor Series --
Team PES is committed to continue bringing the Ponoka Indoor Series to our Alberta Community.
We believe this safe, educational and low-cost show offering is servicing a missing link in our Province. Our goal with the series is to allow Jr./Am Athletes to normalize and gain confidence under the pressures of an impressive competition ring. For Professional Horse Trainers, we've provided a stage to produce Sales and Top Sport Prospects through a collaborative and functional horse show setting, that prioritizes positive experiences.
After a few challenging years, our team has made the difficult decision to drop our Jump Start and Fall Festival Horse Shows, moving forward as a two event series including:

The Season Set-Up - 04/02-04/05/2026
The Winter Welcome - 11/19-11/22/2026
