Howdy, y’all!

Welcome to Ponyville Ciderfest!

Ponyville Ciderfest, Wisconsin’s premiere My Little Pony fan convention, is an annual celebration of the show and brony community by the fans, for the fans.

For our 8th in-person year, Ponyville Ciderfest 2022 returns to the beautiful and historic Hilton Milwaukee City Center. In addition, we aim to make as much of the con available online as possible, via Discord, on Twitch, and on YouTube.

We are proudly owned and run by Worthwhile Events NFP, the same organizers behind Whinny City Pony Con in Illinois & MLP-MSP F in Minnesota.

We are here to provide the best My Little Pony fan experience Wisconsin has ever seen! Ponyville Ciderfest features guests from the show, fan panels, musical acts, a Grand Galloping Gala, and much more!

Our mission is to create an event for everyone. Our event is 100% kid and family-friendly until 8 pm each day, with plenty of activities and panels for any age, including our dedicated Kids Programming Department. After 8 pm, panels may have PG-13 content or may have 18+ or 21+ content if clearly labeled as such on our site and in the program guide.
