Applications open for events and music at UK PonyCon 2022

We’re pleased to announce we’re opening applications for events and music performance at UK PonyCon 2022

We’re seeking enthusiastic members of the community to contribute to our events schedule. We’re open to discuss all types of events, from presentations on subjects related to the community (even if only tangentially) and discussion panels amongst people with a shared passion, to creative workshops and interactive games. We’re also seeking musicians for our Saturday night music concert, returning to our schedule after a three-year break, plus we’re also providing opportunities for up-and-coming musicians to perform on our main stage on Sunday, building confidence and reaching a new audience.

We understand that contributing an event can involve significant effort on your side, from preparing your presentation, coordinating with co-contributors, and then being at the front of the room to lead your event, so why should you do it? Contributors tell us they enjoy sharing their passion with the community, often having benefitted from events as an audience member in the past. They often learn new things while preparing their event, and can make new connections with people who attend their event, opening up future opportunities.

Applications are open for a limited time period. The closing date is not fixed, however we are unlikely to be able to accept applications received after 10th September due to sending our con book and events timetable to print, so please do not delay in applying.
