Got an act, comedy sketch or any special talent you want to show off? Good at singing?!

Our Furry Variety Show wants to hear your ideas! Contact them now at FVS@furfest.org

We have received reports that some attendees who received rooms though the lottery have not received confirmations from their hotels yet.

We have reached out for clarification and hope to have more information soon. This delay does not affect your reservation!

Music lovers, dancers, party people! Have we got news for you! Check out our DJ lineups for the 2019 dances!

Hey Attendees! Hi!
As registration comes to a close November 22, anyone wishing to receive a refund must have their requests sent before closing.
Requests sent after will not be accepted, however, you can request a rollover into FurFest 2020 through December 22nd 2019!
Thank you!

Hey attendees, still looking for a room?! The Hyatt Rosemont has informed us they have extended our hotel block and now have limited availability AT THE CON RATE! Book now before they’re gone! Link here: https://www.furfest.org/hotels

As a friendly reminder, please note that the Hyatt Rosemont and the Hyatt O’hare are not the same hotel.

Pre-registered attendees; 

Starting tomorrow, you should receive an email containing a QR code for your registration. 

Have this and a valid form of I.D. available at the line- you can have the email open, have a screenshot saved, or even print it out!

New this year, QR codes are an excellent way to make the registration process fast and easy!
Our previous method involved manual lookup of attendee info, and paws can only type thousands of names so quickly!

For those of you who are planning to register AT the convention, you can now register AND pay on your mobile device before you hop in line, bypassing the reg terminals - this way you will also get a barcode and speedier registration!

Ever wanted to help during the con but weren’t sure how to work it into your schedule? Starting this year MFF gophers have access to a new tool to plan volunteering around their favorite panels and see what tasks are open! Join the team at: https://www.furfest.org/volunteer

Attendees are asked not to expand or scale their QR codes up, as it breaks the code.
If you need help viewing your emailed code, log into reg.furfest.org and find a second copy there!

Registration is now open for our sponsors and shiny sponsers from 3-5pm! Pre-registered attendees from 5-7pm, and 7-10pm for all pre-registration and at the door registration! REMEMBER YOUR QR CODE for fast registration!

More times/dates available here: https://t.co/bMqJo7VIeM

For attendees registering that are in need of assistance or accessibility; please use the accessible line as you register. Alert our volunteers, who will be happy to help you retrieve your badge!

A reminder to attendees: tonight you will not need badges for panels or dances. You may be subject to a bag check, but no need to fret if you didn't make it to registration!

Hey Brushwolf Fursuiters! Want to be part of something grand and fuzzy? Brushwolf is our special GOH this year & is organizing a fursuit photoshoot at 5:00 PM near the escalators in the convention center! Don’t forget your tail...

If you haven’t had a chance, come down to Dealers Den and meet our charity, Felines and Canines! They have puppies and kittens to pet and it’s your chance to donate to an amazing cause!

Thanks to all our attendees for making this possible — We couldn’t have done it without you!

We are aware that the Hyatt Regency O’Hare has cancelled events occurring within the next two months. We do not expect this to impact Midwest FurFest 2020 at this time. Please stay tuned to our social media & website for any updates should they arise.

Just because something goes without saying, doesn’t mean it should go unsaid. #BlackLivesMatter
