Information (2022)

Sometimes it feels there is nothing more to look forward to and that pony meetups are all in the past. However, our team has not given up yet, and despite everything, we’re still out there working. The atmosphere of big events is something we are all missing and want to experience again.

So far, we can promise you one thing for sure:

We are planning Czequestria 202X in the theme “Sun vs. Moon”!

Last time, we traveled through time, now we’re thinking space! You can look forward to an event filled with contrasts. Will you side with the light or the brightness? Or are both important for a balance? We’re already excited to see your takes on the theme in costumes, art, and anything else you choose to bring to the event!

Anyway, why did we choose such a strange title? What’s the future like for Czequestria? So the story goes like this…

What’s the situation like with our crew and the con itself?
The team has grown by 4 more members and there seems to be no stopping us now! We’ve not spent last year resting on our “laurels” but actually the opposite: 8th Winter Karaoke Party (2nd largest CZ/SK brony event after Czequestria) has taken place, although online for the very first time, with great help from the new crew members!

When and where will the next Czequestria take place?
We are aiming for the last or before-the-last August weekend (as usual – Friday till Sunday), so the usual spot like in previous years. We are not looking to move Czequestria to any other term at the moment.

However, due to the current pandemic situation, we cannot guess if it will happen this or next year. And although the chances for this year’s Czequestria are slowly diminishing we are not giving up on it and are working as if it would happen nonetheless – worst case we will reuse all the work for the following year. The final decision on when Czequestria will take place will be broadcasted in due time based on the overall situation.

As for the “where”? Well, that one is easy, in Prague of course!

Are there any plans to change the concept of the Czequestria compared to the previous years?
Nooope (thanks, Big Mac). The next Czequestria will be in the same shape and sound as the 2019 one.

Soo… when will you open registrations for staff, contributors, musicians, and vendors?
That depends on whether the Czequestria will take place this or the next year. Hence the “X” in the title – until the variable “X” is not known we can’t disclose or launch anything. So watch any (or all) of our social media channels to catch that information as soon as possible!

Are you seeking financial or any other help due to the situation?
Thanks for the offer! But we are good in both ways – financially thanks to our reserve (planned exactly for purposes such as this) as well as staff-wise thanks to the new joinees. Nonetheless, if you wish to support us we do have a transparent donation account (IBAN: CZ9720100000002000534394; BIC/SWIFT: FIOBCZPPXXX) through which you can help us to cover the costs of running the organization.
