Wild West Fest 2026

Saddle up and join us for an unforgettable day at Wild West Fest, one of GaitWay's biggest fundraisers of the year!

Bring the whole family out for a day of Western fun featuring a mechanical bull, live music by Black Dirt Junction, shopping, delicious food trucks, family-friendly games and activities, and a silent auction filled with incredible items.

Every ticket, bid, ride, and purchase directly supports GaitWay's mission of empowering youth and adults through horsemanship, mentorship, and community.

Your generous support of Wild West Fest helps sustain the heart of GaitWay—our incredible horses. They make it possible for us to provide programs that foster confidence, resilience, leadership, and lasting community for girls and women throughout our region. By helping us cover the ongoing costs of horse care, you're allowing us to focus on growing and expanding our programs so we can continue serving those already with us while reaching even more participants in the years to come.

Whether you're coming to enjoy the music, test your skills on the mechanical bull, browse the booths, grab a bite from one of our food trucks, or bid on amazing auction items, you'll be making a meaningful difference in the lives of the people and horses that make GaitWay so special.

We are truly grateful for your support and honored to have you as part of the GaitWay family. We can't wait to welcome you to the ranch for an day of fun, community, and purpose.
