Closing Ceremonies

5:00pm - 6:00pm Mane Events Hall

The end is here, and somehow we survived. Join us for Closing Ceremonies as we wrap up Sunshine PonyCon, say some thank-yous, look back at the weekend, announce final notes, and gently return everyone to the outside world. There may be feelings. There may be announcements. There will almost certainly be at least one person running on snacks and spite. Tags: SPC Hosts: Rum Princess
