FillyCon is really coming together as they happily announce their new website, tickets, vending information, volunteer applications, their venue, and some VIP guests!
Check on after the break for all the info!
The last month has been very exciting for us. We've been hard at work behind the scenes and finally you get to see everything we've been doing since we started.
Website:
The new website is up and running! It's still in Beta format because of some browser compatibility issues. Our team is working out the kinks so hang in there if a few things don't line up quite right. As of now, the site is best viewed in Chrome. We added a push notification feature to the site. Subscribe to it and we'll notify you of new and exciting convention news. (It's the bell in the corner!) You'll also get to see our new mascots. Hopefully you'll love them as much as we do!

Ticket Portal:
Starting this week we will be implementing a GrowTix system into the website. This will allow us to sell you tickets much more efficiently and allow us to streamline badge pick-up at the convention. The GoFundMe site still works in the meantime so no need to wait if you want to buy your tickets now and we encourage you to do so.

Venue:
We have partnered with DoubleTree by Hilton in Center City, Philadelphia. We're really excited to be hosting the convention there. All the best features of Philadelphia are right down the street from it. If you've never been to Philadelphia, now's the time to go! Enjoy some prime pony time and then walk down the street to see the LOVE sculpture, the Liberty Bell, or tour the Historic District. Also, they have the BEST cookies!

That wraps up our news update for now. The staff here at FillyCon is very hyped about all of the progress we've made recently. We can't wait to share this experience with you come this August. If you haven't already, we strongly encourage you to preorder your tickets. Early funding means we can secure more guests and put on a better show for everyone.
