The Ponoka Stampede had previously posted on its social media channels that it has been made aware of third-party websites fraudulently selling tickets for the 2025 Ponoka Stampede.
As ticket scams become increasingly common, organizers are taking extra steps to ensure only legitimate ticket holders gain entry.
“We only honor tickets purchased through our website,” the post states.
In addition to cautioning fans, the Stampede team is reminding attendees to verify ticket prices, as fake listings often inflate prices or charge in U.S. dollars which are often signs of scams.
If you’re planning to attend the 89th Ponoka Stampede, don’t shop around—go straight to the official Ponoka Stampede website to avoid being turned away at the gate.
