As tradition dictates, Czequestria 2017 – like almost every brony conventions – will feature a charity auction! This year, we will be supporting a more equine cause – Hippotherapy, which is a form of Equine-assisted therapy. Close contact with the animals positively affects the patient’s motor skills, coordination, and balance. Haven’t you ever thought hugging equines could be magical?

Anypony can donate an MLP-related item to the auction and all the money will go to support the above mentioned magical thing.

For more information (also how to donate) please refer to Information – Charity auction section

The first “Czequestrian” from far, far away land!

Miss Libussa - VIP

As with anything complex, MLP: FiM was created by people from all walks of life. And thanks to these folks we’ve been able to experience the joy of this wonderful & mesmerizing TV show. And apart from the voice actors, it’s the script & lore writers that create the actual story for those characters. And even though there is now more than a handful of those that have been involved with this show, there is only one that is quite more close to Czequestria than any other…

Without further ado, it is our utmost pleasure to welcome a book & scriptwriter and a person, that’s definitely no party pooper – M. A. Larson!

Among the episodes that have been created by his pen for the TV show “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” belong the highly acclaimed The Return of Harmony, Luna Eclipsed, and Magical Mystery Cure. Apart from writing he just loves attending various conventions and thanks to this he has quite the fame among the brony community. And if catching him offline is difficult, he can always be found on Twitter @M_A_Larson or be contacted via his web site.

Apart from writing the story scripts (of which he participated on eg. Foster’sMy Gym Partner’s a Monkey or Gravity Falls), he does actively develop his own book series called Pennyroyal Academy which is up for third part release on 22nd August!

Sadly due to these duties, he won’t be able to participate in person (as you could’ve guessed from the picture above), but you won’t be spared of his voice as he will call in via Skype.

And why is Mitch A. Larson closer to the Czequestria than any other person on MLP: FiM crew? Well, the story begins 4 years ago in the city of Paris, at the BronyDays convention. During the signing session, he was handed the CZ/SK bronies flag and before actually signing it, he surprised us with a question when we will organize a convention in Prague! As we were quite astonished, we’ve managed to reply along the lines that we are preparing something and that we will surely send him an invite. This was actually a big nudge for us that has led to the creation of Czequestria, as a first Czech-Slovak brony con. So in short, he is the responsible person for making Czequestria a reality! Hopefully, one day, he will attend in person and stop avoiding us!

Cosplay is a traditional part of any fan convention, including ours! So if you are thinking about creating a costume of your favorite character then go for it! It’s most certainly welcome and if you’ve never tried it before, don’t worry – it’s great fun!

No need for years of experience this time – The Cosplay show on this year’s Czequestria is open to anyone who will dress into a costume and become his/her favorite Equestrian or Equestria inspired character.

For details, see the Information – Cosplay show menu. We are looking forward to seeing all your costumes!

Guests? Guests! The very first one revealed!

Guests of various art professions are the adornment of all bigger social events and this year’s Czequestria won’t be an exception.

We are honored to introduce the first of our guests: the Slovak VA known to bronies for giving her voice to Pinkie Pie, Lenka Debnárová!

After finishing her studies at the university of musical acting she has been involved in dubbing as well as both radio and television moderation. Her voice brings many foreign characters to life, such as Padma Patil in Harry Potter or Stephanie Barnett in Big Bang Theory. Currently, you can also see her on the biggest Slovak TV Markíza as a Weather reporter.

Besides her family, she also deals with horses in her spare time – certainly quieter than Pinkie Pie 🙂
