The event is held every year to raise funds to support the local non-profit club.
Committee Member Jenna Arnett said they endeavour to raise enough funds to maintain their grounds and equipment.
“Another one of our important focuses, with any money we gather from sponsorship, is bringing in riding coaches from out of town to improve our pony club community,” Ms Arnett said.
“We believe the development of our young riders is a vital part of pony clubs ethos.”
The 180 guests were entertained by local Mount Isa band BullDust who managed to get the attendees dancing with their powerful performance.
Ms Arnett said this years event was sponsored by Calton Hills Station, Q Energy Solutions, HV Power, Ultimate Kitchens, Floorworx, Hacon and Sons, Butler Agencies and Hankinsons Smash Repairs.
