The final update

[edit]

Now that BronyCon is over, I've taken the liberty of updating this graph with all of the attendance figures until 2019 (listed and cited in the Wikipedia article).

Some remarks:

  • The figure for the January 2012 event was changed from 850 to 650 to be consistent with the source. The 850 was in fact added using the same source, so unless attendance figures on Meetup.com can change after the fact, my guess is that it was a typo. The 650 figure is also more consistent with the "about 700" figure of the Gawker article which was the previous source.
  • The figure for the 2019 event is sourced from an attendee's photograph of an announcement. Unlike in previous years, the convention hasn't (yet) announced the count on any official channel, and I don't know if the photograph would be considered a reliable source. It is attested by other attendees though, so I'll leave it as it is.
  • I made a few technical changes to the Gnuplot code: I updated the font specification to the new syntax for Gnuplot 5 and added an explicit line color for consistency (the default was purple on my computer).
