WILD ROSE WELSH
& OPEN PONY SHOW
ABOUT US
Ours is one of only a handful of Welsh shows across Western Canada—though most classes are open to all breeds.
Offering Welsh breeders and enthusiasts a place to showcase their stock to knowledgeable judges, balancing affordability with maximum judging opportunities—we have three judges over one weekend. This has become a key event for the Welsh breed in the west; we receive entries from British Columbia to Saskatchewan.
The majority of our classes are open, inviting all ponies/horses to compete, regardless of breed, registration, or skill level—plenty of kid & fun classes, alongside more competitive options.
