Bur, Las Vegas is so much easier to get to for us in different countries...I'd also like to know what happened to this plan.

Thanks!

Hi SoccerChicka,

You're right, the previous Fair staff did say that the event would be held in Las Vegas for the next several years. However, the previous Fair organizer was very busy and overwhelmed and for a while it looked like it wasn't going to happen at all in 2010. The venue was changed to Louisville, KY so we could have a more hands on approach with planning and coordination. It is more central and we were offered a very reasonable venue rate (compared to past venues the MLPFair has used). We are able to focus much more on the games, activities, and events this year than in previous years. While I understand the confusion, these changes were announced in January so everyone could plan accordingly if they still wanted to attend the 2010 Fair.

I hope that answered your question.

I'd like to be added to the list. If someone could pick one up for me, I'll pay you immediately.

I'm crossing my hooves that someone can pick a fair pony up for me too! She is just sooooo beautiful! I LOVE her bright green body!!

I am willing to pick up ponies for 8 more people now that we know what they will cost and how we can get them Price would be $45 shipped. They're in the bigger art boxes so they'll probably have to go priority. Over seas shipping might be a little more. I'm happy to flatten/debox the pony too if you'd like.

So anyone who would like a pick up please pm me Pony must be paid for by July 1st via paypal so I have time to transfer the money to cash unless the fair staff will be taking credit?

We aren't planning on accepting credit cards. Cash only this year.

Hullo!

My daughter and I went to the Vega$ MLP Fair last year and we're disappointed that we can't go this year. Would anyone in SoCal be willing to pick up one of the exclusive ponies for us? Please contact me at:
