Top 10 Cities that Deserve a Brony Convention

[twilightsparkle3562 145]

Ah, Brony Conventions, the meat of the Brony Fandom where Bronies come together to spread the magic of friendship with charity auctions, cosplayers, artists, vendors, etc.  There are plenty of cities that have conventions, but this is a list with the cities that are capable or deserve a brony conventions.  This is my top 10, but feel free to throw in your suggestions as well.

 

 

1.  Boston, Massachusetts/Providence, Rhode Island:  As a native New Englander and someone that lives very close to Hasbro Headquarters, nothing would impress me more than to have a convention to be held in New England.  Most likely a hotel in Boston or the Rhode Island Convention Center in Downtown Providence would be a good location.

 

2. New Orleans, Louisiana: The former home of DerpyCon South.  New Orleans would be an ideal location, especially for people interested in Mardi Gras and Jazz Music.  Furthermore, a Charity auction would give the city a huge boost of confidence in the years after Hurricane Katrina.

 

3. Orlando, Florida: In a city which is home to Walt Disney World and Universal Studios, a Brony convention would sort of break up the mold.  If there is a convention in Orlando, it should follow the same formula as Equestria LA in Anaheim, CA and be located near Disney World.

 

4. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: With Fillycon in Philadelphia making its mark in Eastern Pennsylvania, it makes perfect sense that Pittsburgh hosts a Brony convention.

 

5. London, England:  This would be something that the British Bronies would enjoy, especially since the London ExCel center would be an ideal location or the Hilton Doubletree hotel next door.  Plus, London has so many attractions that would keep people busy if they want to get away from the convention.

 

6. Paris, France: Much like London, Paris would be another ideal location with its history serving as a magnet to attract Bronies to the City of Lights.

 

7. Shanghai, China:  I know that Project Seapony is happening in Thailand, but how about China?  Especially in one of China's largest.

 

8. Hong Kong, China:  They always say that Hong Kong is east meets west, so why not?

 

9. Seoul, South Korea:  I don't know how big the fandom is in South Korea, but I am sure that there is.

 

10. Belfast, Northern Ireland:  Would be ideal for people travelling through London/Heathrow and for Titanic enthusiasts in general.

Toronto!  If you live in Canada then your only option is in BC so if you live in the east where most people live then you are kind of screwed.

[eragaedrhaerh 64]

I second Belfast! 

Now that BUCK's over, we need another con here in the UK, aside from BCUK

"2017 will be the farewell to our beloved Australian grown My Little Pony convention, with that, we will surely make it one to remember!"

yeah... that's true... I hope it goes out of BC next year (even if I live in BC >~<)

[StitchandMLPlover 930]

We need a Bronycon in Brooklyn NY NOW! 

 

We also need to make MLP popular in India so India can have a Bronycon. 

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,645]

This city may already have it so I could be entirely wrong, but Indianapolis. Not only is it in my state, but considering that the home team is the Colts, that seems like a match made in pony heaven, right? There probably already is some kind of MLP convention there, but I can't think of any major ones there that are for bronies.

[PiratePony 8,475]

Why, Las Vegas should of course!

[twilightsparkle3562 145]

I've already pre-registered upon seeing this.  However, I am hoping and praying that Las Vegas hosts a respectable convention in a proper manner that is worthy of Brony Convention standards.

[DuskRain 193]

Reno, Nevada. I know that were having our con in LV, but that is 9 hours away opposed to 45 minutes to Reno for me. Plus Reno is way more relaxed than Las Vegas and a lot nicer. (And we never have cons here)

[Sketchy Tail 206]

We need a BronyCON in Texas, pls.

 

I can't travel all the way to Boston which sucks.

There is Nightmare Nights in Dallas and Fiesta Equestria in Houston, you know.

[DeadAccount111 63]

Can we add Kansas city Missouri to this list?

[Thrond 3,263]

BC isn't all that far, and neither are a few northern US ones like Seattle, but I certainly wouldn't mind a pony con to open up here in Calgary. Although Toronto could use one way more. They really don't have one already? One of the biggest cities in North America? Now that's just plain absurd. 

[twilightsparkle3562 145]

They have Midwest Bronyfest.

Here are some honorable mentions:

 

1. Charlotte, North Carolina:  Home to NASCAR, it makes sense to have a Ponyville Derby-themed convention.

 

2. Cancun, Mexico: Would be ideal for Spring Break, but it would have to be family friendly.

 

3. Sacramento, California:  DustyKatt would approve and it would be a good alternative to BABSCon.

 

4. Washington, DC:  A likely candidate for an "Equestrian Summit" theme.  

 

5. Brussels, Belgium: Neighbors with Amsterdam and would be a good compliment to Hearth's Warming Con.

 

6. Toronto, Canada: Most populated city in North America needs a convention.  

 

7. San Juan, Puerto Rico: We need a convention in the Caribbean, enough said.

 

8. Louisville, Kentucky:  Makes sense with the horse theme.

 

9. Reno, NV: Would serve as a good alternative to Las Vegas.

 

10. Athens, Greece: Since there are Greek elements in MLP:FIM, why not?

[IsraelYabuki 446]

We need one in Modesto, CA. We've got a convention center over here but it's not used all that much.

 There is also Babscon in San Francisco.

[Whirlwind 1,059]

I always thought Having one in Fresno California would be pretty cool.

Especially since it's a meet in the middle between Babs and Pacific pony con.

 

My brony Meetup group thought it would be cool too

[Randimaxis 8,654]

Atlanta, Georgia, USA

 

... because I live there, and it'll be about the ONLY way I ever get to one!

 

Plus, hey - major airport, lots of atmosphere, home of DragonCon... and peaches.

 

LOTS of damned peaches.

[EverEverOn 346]

I'd like to see a con happen in San Antonio, Texas.

[Kozmos 129]

I wish there could've been one in Brisbane, Australia

It's a shame that next years con will be the last one in Australia...

don't worry mate. there might be more non official or smaller events for us.... i hope 

[Artimis Whooves 1,576]

Raleigh/durham NC might be good places, plus it'd probably be the only cons I could go to before going to college.

Or one in Sydney that would be good

Who knows maybe there will be a con in 2018.
