Accessibility Requests

BronyCon is committed to making our events accessible to all our attendees. This page explains all the ways we accommodate our attendees in general, but we know that this won't account for everyone's needs. If you have needs that we are not currently accommodating, please send us an email at [email protected] detailing what you need, and we will do our best to help you out. We ask that you contact us as early as possible so that we have the best chance of being able to best accommodate you.

Accessibility Pass

For attendees who may need extra time to get seated during large events due to mobility difficulties, visual impairment, or other issues, an accessibility pass is available at our info booths. This pass goes on your lanyard behind your badge and allows you and up to two friends to enter Mane Event’s Hall 20 minutes before the general crowds so you have extra time to find a seat and get seated. In order to take advantage of this early entry, make sure you are at the door to Mane Event’s Hall 20 minutes prior the start of the event and show the staff member at the door your pass.

If you don't need extra time to get seated, but you may need to leave a line at a specific time (e.g., to take medication), the accessibility pass also allows you to leave and re-enter lines. When you need to leave the line, show your pass to the people in front of and behind you and to a BronyCon staffer before leaving the line. When you return, you may re-enter the line at your former place.

Wheelchairs

Attendees who use wheelchairs or have difficulty moving are given priority when using elevators. Able-bodied attendees should let attendees in wheelchairs or who have trouble moving go ahead of them to use elevators first.

Attendees are reminded that service animals are working animals and should not distract them or attempt to pet them.
