The Cologne Furdance was a dance party for furries and friends that took place in the city of Cologne in Germany.

The event was organized and hosted by the CrosSCombineD event team. It historically took place in a Dance School at Zeughaus24, Zeughausstrasse 24, 50667 Köln, Germany, but moved to the Maritim hotel in 2015.

The most recent event was scheduled for June 3, 2017,[1][2] but was cancelled later that month[3] after uncertainty over declining membership:

The registration numbers turned out to be a lot lower than in previous years. The risk of not reaching our break even is pretty high, and therefore we've decided to cancel the event.

We are taking this opportunity to fundamentally reconsider the concept of the CFD. When we overflowed the Zeughaus just short of 400 attendees, moving to a larger location seemed like the next logical step. However, in the last few years a lot of new dance events have sprung up in many cities, and for many attendees the long trip to cologne no longer pays off. As a consequence, we did not see the projected growth it would have taken to create the same old party feeling in the Maritim Hotel.

We are absolutely determined to organize more events in the future under the "Cologne Furdance" banner, however they will no longer take place at the Maritim. We are definitely going to move into a new, smaller venue. We can't say yet if we will be able to make the switch within the current year, but we are going to keep you posted!
