History:
At the closing ceremonies of the February 2016 Ponycon convention, owners Keith Butler and Karen Wills announced they would not be able to produce another Ponycon. The economic ability to host this kind of high quality, fan organized, grass roots convention in New York City was just too much to overcome. They felt Ponycon needs to remain affordable for fans and families so we can inclusively celebrate the magic of friendship together.
In this case - NOT all good things must come to an end. A few months ago, Keith Butler and Alex Davidson were discussing how much they missed producing Ponycon. You may remember Davidson as the emcee of Ponycon but he was also art director and one of the behind the scenes people helping create the look and feel of the con.
After polling team members and some past sponsors, Butler and Davidson decided to join forces and revive the much missed convention.
