Saturday Events

Opening Ceremony
Saturday 10:30-12:00 on Mane Stage
Yeehaw. Can you imagine? It has been a whole year since we last saw what
the gang has been up to. Join our lovely mascots to see what hijinx they are up
to this year. Will it include a dragon? Will Fanbrush turn evil this year? Will it
include a reflection on the harsh emotional reality of living in a profit driven
post-capitalistic society? Let’s find out together and ring in this edition of
PonyCon Holland!

Voice Acting Panel with Rebecca Shoichet and Kelly Metzger
Saturday 12:15-13:45 on Mane Stage
Join us for an exciting panel featuring Rebecca Shoichet, the voice actress
of Sunset Shimmer and the singing voice of Twilight Sparkle, and Kelly Metzger,
the voice actress of our fierce Wonderbolt captain, Spitfire!
The panel starts with an interview with both our voice actors, where they will
provide insights and maybe even some fun behind the scenes details of
working on everypony’s favourite show!
Afterwards there will be room for questions from the audience! Make sure
you don’t miss this opportunity to interact with this year’s special guests!

Unicorn Mythology by Malte
Saturday 12:15-13:45 in Panel Room
The domestication of horses and their high appreciation by humans
have brought forth many myths and legends about equine or partly
equine creatures. Apart from the unicorns as the most famous, further
examples include the pegasi, centaurs and the hippogriffs. This panel offers a
little insight into some of the historical sources, beliefs, legends, and art which
make up for some of the roots of the series we know and love and that
inspires us to continue the tradition with tales and art of our own.

Tails of Equestria Workshop by Victorymon
Saturday 12:30-14:00 in Workshop Room
Create your own pony hero and dive into a magical mini-adventure of
friendship, cake, and explosions! No experience needed. Everything is
provided. Together we’ll roll dice, face challenges, and discover the power of
storytelling (and maybe a little chaos). Music may set the scene, and surprises
await at every turn.
Audience participation is warmly invited. Cheer, laugh, and
share the magic as our adventure unfolds. Join us and see
how epic a simple roll of the dice can be!

Cosplay Contest
Saturday 14:00-15:00 on Mane Stage
Are you ready to see some stunning cosplays? No? Too bad, you
are going to see them here anyway! Not only are My Little Pony
cosplays welcome here, but expect to see cosplays from various
different series, games, movies and other media. Maybe even one from your all
time favourite piece of media… You’ll never know until you go!
The best cosplays will win prizes! Don’t miss out on discovering which
cosplayer wins the Most Creative Cosplay, Best Crafted Cosplay and Best
Performance Cosplay. And there will also be an overall winner of the cosplay contest!

Hasbro on Bronies by New Leaf
Saturday 14:00-15:00 in Panel Room
Hasbro and the Bronies have always been a fascinating duo—one creating
the magic, the other taking it to heights no one could have predicted! Over
the years, the fandom has grown into a worldwide phenomenon, filled with
creativity, passion, and countless inside memes and jokes that even the
creators couldn’t have seen coming. But how much does Hasbro really know
about the Brony community? How do they interact with us? At this panel, we’ll
explore exactly that and marvel at just how much they really have been
watching us and how they have followed our journey!

Jeremy Whitley Panel with Jeremy Whitley (no way)
Saturday 15:15-16:30 on Mane Stage
Jeremy Whitley is here to talk about his experiences with the MLP comic
series! As a long-time writer for the MLP comics, with over 55 issues to his
name, there are certainly a lot of interesting and entertaining stories to be
told! Of course there will also be room for audience questions, if there is
something you’ve always wanted to know about the comics, now is the perfect
chance to ask it!

Derpibooru; Behind the Scenes by Nightly
Saturday 15:15-16:15 in Panel Room

behind the scenes? No? Well too bad, because we're going to talk about it
anyway. Learn how the site is moderated and decisions are made on a daily
basis! Dig into the future plans of Derpibooru, the ongoing moderation and

on a daily basis. Also there will be numbers!!! And there may be shiny badges
involved!

bring your own (for the ultimate grind)!

Activities
Saturday 19:00-21:30 in Workshop Room
All you have to do is take a cup of flour. Add it to the mix. Now just take a
little something sweet, not sour. A bit of salt, just a pinch. Baking these treats
was such a cinch, but right now the bakery is in disarray. Our mascots need
help! Assembling the baker’s dozen (see page 26) requires some activities be
done here. Can you gather enough pastries for your team?
