We are aware that, the elephant in the room, is that UK PonyCon ticket prices have increased. Ticket prices increasing is relatively standard for all events due to a variety of factors and while we understand this is disappointing for some attendees. We would like to take this opportunity to remind attendees that we are adding a whole extra music performance evening this year. As well as lots of fun additions that will be revealed as we get closer to the convention! We do our best as a convention to manage price increases and always do the best we can to offer you, our wonderful attendees, the best possible deal. For our incredible sponsors, here’s whats new for you this year!

BRONZE: Our Bronze Sponsors can look forward to many amazing perks when upgrading! We worked really hard to keep this ticket tier under 3 figures and every attendee who upgrades to Bronze? Not only supports UK PonyCon in being able to offer a more unforgettable convention experience, but you also help us fundraise more for our chosen charity, the RDA. Who you can read more about HERE - New for 2025? Bronze Sponsors will for the first time have the option to order our extremely exclusive Sponsor Hoodie! This is a pre-order item which is charged separately. However until this year, It was only available to Silver and Gold Sponsors. Now you can join in on the fun! <3
SILVER And this one is a big one! Silver sponsors will get an exclusive signing session. This is a signing session with our special guest(s) (NEWS COMING SOON!) That is only for Silver Sponsors. You will be given a allocated time slot which means we estimate short queues of only 10-15 minutes, and? A signing session in our events schedule which is only for the very lucky 60 people who choose to become a Silver Sponsor this year! For anyone reading this who does not plan to be a silver sponsor? Please don’t fret! We will have other public signing sessions available, but we have set one aside that is just for those who choose to support UK PonyCon even more - We love you all!
GOLD gold! always believe in your soul, you’ve got the power to know….That we love our gold sponsors! This year? We only have four Gold Sponsor tickets available, compared to last years 5!
