We've got tournaments and pickup games running all three days! Rage, White Wolf, Catan, Candyland and a LOT more!
Torture Chamber Arcade (Video Gaming)
Attendees tell us we've got the best video game room in the fandom! A spacious room filled with state-of-the-art systems and lots of fellow enthusiasts to play with! A technological seizure of video ecstasy is waiting for you!
Fursuit Massacre (Fursuit Games)
Teams of giant furry animals face off and fight to the sweaty death in FurFright Stadium! If you like races, games, and watching the fur fly, you'll love our Fursuit Massacre! The Greatest Spectacle In Furry Sports?!
Masquerade
The reviews are in, and audiences everywhere are calling the The FurFright Masquerade the only show of its kind in the fandom that doesn't cause stomach cramps. And that's saying something! Talented furries (both fursuiters and non-fursuiters) take to the stage to put on a show that will leave you saying, "Wow! That didn't suck!" It's funny, it's exciting, and it's not easily forgotten (therapy helps, but not much)!
For information on how to take part in our Masquerade, visit our Masquerade page.
FrankenSponsor/Dealer Social
Friday night at 5pm we invite our Casanova FrankenSponsors, FrankenSponsors, and Dealers to Club FurFright (in the main ballroom) to enjoy a catered social. Gather around a table with friends and enjoy gourmet food, a Titanium Tea beverage pairing (courtesy of Watcher), and music!
FrankenSponsors and Dealers must present their social tickets at the door
The Frankensponsor/Dealer Social runs from 5-7pm, then ALL attendees are welcomed inside to enjoy food, drink and Friday Furpocalypse!
Friday Furpocalypse
Friday night from 7-9pm come on down to FurFright's nightclub and enjoy food, drinks, Titanium Tea (courtesy of Watcher), music, and furry game shows that push the boundaries of good taste . . . and laws in most states. Fursuiters and non-fursuiters alike are welcomed to take part in our games or just hang out with friends and get their con started right!
Dances @ Club FurFright
FurFright's dances offer something completely unique: Great music that everyone can actually dance to! Our award-winning DJs don't lock into one style of music. They provide a constant mix of danceable tunes to keep ALL our furry friends on the dance floor all night long!
Fursuit Parades (2)
Hup, two, three, FUR! It's the march of the beasties! Fursuiters and costumers alike are welcomed to join the ranks as we march, frolic, and sometimes stagger through the halls of FurFright! And at the end of the road we'll come together for a BIG group photo! If you're not marching, grab a spot along the parade route and cheer on the troops!
Free Photo Shoot
Our staff photographers offer free professional photos to all our attendees!
Draw or Die! (Artists' Challenge)
One of our most popular events! Artists and audience members get together, take disturbing themes and suggestions, and make them into even more disturbing artwork! Come and join the fun! All skill levels welcomed!
FrankenFursuit
The premise is simple. Teams of furs are locked in a room with a pile of materials (i.e. "crap") and have a set amount of time to build a fursuit. Then, these walking abominations are marched out on stage in front of our esteemed panel of judges and... uhhhh... judged! The winner will receive "things", "stuff", and unending praise (i.e. ridicule)
Opening Ceremonies
Time to drag the FurFright Beast from the grave and hit it with the paddles! Laugh with the FurFright Crew, watch us crown our Attendee Guest Of Honor, and help us get the party started!
Closing Ceremonies
Now we hit FurFright with the Febreze and toss it back in the grave for another year! We'll recap the fun, meet the furs who make the con possible, announce the attendance and how much we raised for our charities, and gear up for the Dead Fur Party!
Dead Fur Party
What's there to do on the last night of the con besides wallow in pre-post-con depression? There's the Dead Fur Party! This bash takes the FurFright monster by the throat and screams, "Live, dammit, LIVE!" Join us in the ballroom to hangout and dance the night away!
Charity Auction & Raffle
Bid on and win one-of-a-kind furry art and merchandise at our Charity Auction/Raffle! All proceeds go to help our animal charities, so donate what you can and bid often!
For more information about our Charities and Auction/Raffle, visit our Charity Raffle and Auction page.
Programming, Panels, and Classes
Our schedule is packed with events, panels, and classes! And unlike bigger cons, they don't suck! There's always lots to do, so keep an eye on our schedule!

Attractions
Guests Of Honor
Every year FurFright selects a Guest Of Honor and showcases their talents and accomplishments.
Attendee GOH
At our Opening Ceremonies, one attendee will be chosen at random to receive our Attendee Guest Of Honor Crown, a membership upgrade, free admission to next year's con, an article in our con newspaper, a spot on our Masquerade Judges panel, a lifetime of embarrassment, and more! This is FurFright's way of celebrating the furs who make this con and the fandom possible: YOU!
Fursuit-Friendly
FurFright was created by fursuiters, so we make sure we take care of our suiting brothers and sisters by offering a huge, well-equipped Headless Lounge, and a ton of fursuit events. We pride ourselves as one of the most fursuit-friendly conventions in the fandom!
Great Location
Central to the Northeast, we're only a 2 to 4-hour drive from NY, PA, NJ, New England, Japan, and Mars!
Gorgeous Hotel
FurFright has a gorgeous hotel all to itself, with nearby restaurants, an indoor pool and hot tub, internet access, lush atrium, and so much more!
For more information on our hotel, visit our Hotel page.
The Heart Of FurFright
Every year a group of dedicated, experienced furs work their tails off to bring you a great convention for no other reason than to make their furry friends happy and give back to the community that they call home. We pride ourselves as being one of the best-run conventions in any fandom, and always listen to attendee feedback/ideas and work to make your con better!

Guests of Honor
Keryn 'Kei' Everett (aka Skulldog)http://skulldog.deviantart.com/
A full-time artist based in New England, Skulldog crafts beautiful and sometimes bizarre creations in a wide range of media. Inspired by dreams, avant-garde animation, and other weird stuff, her work often explores macabre, fantastical, and mythic themes, featuring anthropomorphic animals and other imaginary beasts. Her output is prolific, including traditional media (watercolor, pencil, acrylic), digital art, several comics, and the occasional sewn 3D project. She's been a familiar face in the FurFright Dealer's Dungeon for several years, and also attends a number of other furry and non-furry conventions.
D. Walker of Hopeful Monster Studioshttp://hopefulmonsterstudio.deviantart.com/
If you saw the incredible hellhound doll in FurFright's charity auction last year, you already know how talented D. Walker is. She can turn almost anything she touches into art - even dryer lint! A few of the many forms her creations take include mixed-media sculpture, leatherwork, glass etching, FX makeup, and traditional visual art. She's a professional artist hailing from right here in the Nutmeg State, and since last year she's also the proud mom of a daughter. In her spare time she enjoys animal rescue, fencing, rock climbing, archery, and D&D/roleplaying games.
