Brony Q&A
(1.25 hours) You don’t need to go far into That Weird Part Of The Internet to see something Pony related, but even still a lot of people don’t understand bronies.

Party
(2.5 hours) We thought we’d throw a little warmup party for the Friday Night Entertainments this is our little miniaturised version of BUCK 2013, so if you want to know how the Bronies groove, here’s a tiny tiny little taste! Music and good times will ensue, along with inflatable objects and possibly Cupcakes! The party will run until whenever we’re good and done so come and party Pinkie Pie style!
Saturday, 10th
Intro
(0.75 hours) Since its reboot in 2010, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has sparked a cultural phenomenon on the Internet of young male fans that follow both the show and the huge fandom that gathered around it. What started as an Internet Meme now encompasses all demographics, creating vast amounts of music, art, writing, and crafts not just based on the show, but also original work. BUCK is the largest european convention dedicated to the fandom, and they’ll be at Nine Worlds to tell you all about it, and share some of the creativity, charity, and fun, that defines the term ‘Brony’.
