The 2013 Golden Acorn Awards ceremonies took place in Equestria on February 28, 2014.

This ceremony was marked with naming of The Most Prolific Rangerphile nomination after Mark Morgan aka Bubbles' Big Brother, who passed in 2013 to great regret and grief of the whole Rangerphile community.

The list of nominations as a whole transformed significantly due to many traditional nominations being viewed as outdated. Also this year saw introduction of an 'off-topic award', Best Non-Ranger Artwork, the purpose of which was to reward members of the community for their creative efforts in other fandoms.
