Bad news from over in Austalia. It looks like PonyCon AU has run into a money snag after their event in 2015. They currently owe 3,000 by the end of March, and 8,000 for April. Considering this is the only convention left over in Australia, it would be sad to see it go under.
If you are in the area and want to help out, you can check out their donate link here. The full announcement is both after the break, and over on Facebook.
PonyCon AU would like to once again thank everyone who came to Seaponies Paradise this year, it's only with the support of our community that we were able to host such a fantastic weekend for Aussie Bronies.
Unfortunately, PonyCon AU has run into some trouble with costs we incurred running the event in 2015. Due to unforeseen issues arising at the eleventh hour, we still have roughly $8000 to pay off by the end of April. Whilst we will continue to work on the problem from our end, the PCAU team could really use some help from the community that's supported us so well in the past.
Nobody is obligated to donate anything, of course, but without some help we will sadly be unable to run the event in next year or in the future - PCAU needs 3,000 by the end of March, and a further 5,000 by the end of April.

Even if you are unable to donate, simply sharing this message to others in the fandom will help us out immensely. Keep an eye on our Facebook page as we continue to upload the panels and events to our YouTube.
Thanks to Luke and everyone else for sending it!
