May 2023...

We did it, we went back in time and had an 80s Disco Partayyyy!!

This year we were remotely joined by Nicole Oliver, the voice of Princess Celestia herself to coincide with the King's Coronation, and Cheerilee to be our 80s pony counterpart! 

We also had our largest Auction tally of £3489 which will again go toward helping the lovely horses,
and (*sigh*) gave birth to a new Princess Biden meme who contributed so much to the total!!

To complete the fun, we invited BassPon3, Ben Love and Lavender to our evening event and they
rocked us with 80s beats and nostalgic notes under the neon bubbles!

This year Katrina Salisbury (the voice of Yona in G5) joined us remotely to celebrate our theme "Friends From Afar", in which we invited all of our
friends from Ponies, to Griffons and Yaks. We journeyed to Yakyakistan and took part in a number of Yak events - we  even had a Yakky race track!

Our popular evening event consisted of rocking beats from Basspon3, Prince Whateverer,  Blackened Blue and Re:Make!

We raised  £2530 for this year's charity "Only Foals and Horses"!

November 2021

Unfortunately due to ongoing Covid-19 restrictions we were forced to move the event date... twice... but we won't keep a pony waiting
and we were determined to make it the best we could regardless! This was also our first full-weekend convention, and our first year at
our new venue, the Pendulum Hotel, Manechester!

The theme this year was "Magic" so we couldn't resist but to invite one of the most magical ponies, Sunburst, to our fair Isles! Ian Hanlin
joined us over video chat and we had a lot of fun reading scripts with him and discussing his experiences whilst voice acting for the show.

This year we invited BassPon3, Prince Whateverer, Blackened Blue and Coltastrophe to perform at our evening event and we had a
blast with the new dance floor setup. 

We raised £3279 for this year's charity "Only Foals and Horses"!

Never happened. We don't talk about being held captive at home and hiding from a pandemic. We were sad to not hold GI this year,
but we weren't alone. It was a tough year for everycreature!

We were at the St. Thomas Centre in Manechester, but we expanded into two more buildings! That means more Pony!

This year the theme was "Dragons", and we had two of them grace us with their presence! Lee Tockar was the
in-person guest of honour and he voices several characters in the show, not least the fab-u-lous Dragon, Stephen Magnet!
We were also honoured to have Ali Milner (Dragon Lord Ember) on video call to join in on the fun! Our charity again was the GMVCO!

Our first Pony Convention! Our guest of honour was the lovely Elley Ray, voice of Mist Mane and many other characters. She visited us at the St. Thomas Centre in Manechester and absolutely stole the show with her endless love and hilarity. We raised £600 for our charity the GMVCO.
