Our Team and Our Mission

Worthwhile Events NFP Website

Whinny City Pony Con is managed by Worthwhile Events NFP, the same team that runs Ponyville Ciderfest, a team that is dedicated to bringing a family-friendly My Little Pony fandom experience to Chicagoland.

Our event is 100% kid and family-friendly until 8 pm each day. After 8 pm, panels may have PG-13 content or may have 18+ or 21+ content if clearly labeled as such on our site and in the program guide.
