The Ponies & Planks Pre-Party is set to kick off the weekend with high-energy skijoring stoke, music, and prizes at Fernie Taphouse.

Open to everyone, this pre-party is all about building momentum and camaraderie ahead of Ponies & Planks Skijoring. Guests are encouraged to bring their best western-inspired hat, soak up the atmosphere, and get fired up with fellow fans, riders, and competitors.

Competitors can stop by to sign waivers, get key competition-day information, and connect with other participants before hitting the course. Saturday event tickets will also be available for purchase during the pre-party.

With lively music, skijoring buzz, and prizes for the best hat in the house, the Ponies & Planks Pre-Party sets the tone for a full weekend of winter fun in Fernie.
