So now that Hiatus is...hopefully...ending, the conventions are starting to come out with more info. First up is the Horsefucker Cruise Project - aka "SeaBronies" which surfaced in response to that cruise scam we stomped a few weeks back. They're working on making a crusie meetup for pony folk, and just announced 2 con orgs manning up the organizational parts.
But that's not all that came out of the convention scene.
The French are getting in on this too.
Recently announced is a new convention out of Toulous France called "Pony South". Here's what they have to say:
What is PonySouth ?PonySouth is a French convention for adult fans of My Little Pony : Friendship is Magic happening in Toulouse (France), the 18th and 19th of July 2015.Our goal is to bring together French fans and the best French content creators.So if you're one of our many French readers who also doesn't want to mingle with the uncultured swine in the US or the UK and find German sausage detestable, looks like this is the one for you.

Lastly is a convention in Texas that we rarely touch on that held a virtually unattended AMA on Reddit today, in which they announced 3 guests and also declared themselves "the largest pony convention in Texas". We attempted to ask them "since when?", but the nazi moderators have most accounts that have posted HN links in the past banned from the site.
In the course of 2 hours the thread attracted a total of 6 comments, 2 of which were invisible, 2 were the staff expressing confusion about the reddit accounts, and another apologizing for the lack of responses.
Coming up this weekend: Ponycon Australia this weekend (Feb 21 - 22), and Hearths Warming Con in the Netherlands (Feb 20-21) in Hoofddorp.

But what is PonySouth? It's a convention for fans of My Little Pony created by Harmony Evenements, a non-profit association dedicated on organizing cultural events on various themes.
Panels, conferences, rounds of My Little Karaoke, Legends of Equestria, board games, card games, a great hall of exhibitors, this is what awaits for you at PonySouth ... Isn't this awesome? And, if you need to rest a little, there's a space dedicated to relaxation where you can have a drink and/or something to eat any time during the day.
The convention will be held on Saturday 18th and Sunday 19th of July, at "Le Sing Sing", 90 Chemin de la Flambère, at Toulouse in France. More than 1000m² with four rooms, a bar and a "resting area". You can see its location on a map here: https://www.google.com/
If you are an artist and want to sell or expose at PonySouth? No problems, application files will be available at the end of March / early April. Be aware that the entrance is free to exhibitors.
If you also want to help the organization, volunteers applications will be open soon.
Regarding housing, we recommend you two places at the moment, you can sleep at the "Auberge de St-Sernin" or the "Habital Ô Toulouse " which is near the Metro stop "Jolimont". Both have very affordable prices.

ReplyDeleteseriously who the fuck thought it was a good idea for the neckbeard kicked out of his own convention due to his abuse and theft to run another convention?

I'll only go on a cruise if we get so far out to ocean we can gamble and hold monkey knife fights.
ReplyDeleteThat's small ball, namefag, I'm disappointed.
DeleteThis is the pony fandom; you should want to get far enough out that you can legally cum inside a horse that's been dyed blue with a rainbow mane and tail.
