Our interactive online schedule allows you to easily see what’s happening in each of our many programming rooms at any given time. Enjoy hundreds of hours of community programming in our five panel rooms, watch your favorite pony videos in the Baltimare Theater, bring the kids to the Crusader Clubhouse, stop by our Stable Top Games room, or just hang out in the Quills and Sofa lounge. With so much variety in our programming, BronyCon truly has something for everyone. The complete schedule can be found here.

    BronyCon is also thrilled to announce another unique opportunity for those arriving in Baltimore a little early: an exclusive brony cake decorating class with world renowned Charm City Cakes! Is there a more perfect way to celebrate your visit to Baltimore, and BronyCon 2013 than your very own My Little Pony themed cake? Veteran cake decorator, Mary Smith, will be your guide through this magical class, as you learn professional cake decorating techniques and create your own delicious pony masterpiece. This event will be held Thursday, August 1st at 6:30 PM. There will be a cost of $150 per participant, ages 16 and up. Space is limited, so reserve your spot now by sending an email to marysmith@charmcitycakes.com with the subject “Brony Cake Class”. More information can be found here.

    And remember, pre-registration closes on July 15th, which means there is less than a week to get your Three Day Pass for $70! Prices at the door will be $5 higher, so act now and buy your ticket to the largest brony convention of all time.
