Furloween was an annual Halloween party held in Orlando, Florida. The party was run by Mach Stormrunner, and was been held every year from 1999 until 2019. The party did not return after the COVID-19 pandemic.[1]

Furloween has the distinction of being Florida's first major furry meet, predating Furry Spring Break by two years, Megaplex by three and both Elliott's Spring Gathering and Elliott's Fall Festival by seven years.

The mascot of Furloween is Ozzy Bat.

Although Furloween usually had a limited number of vendors, the festivities were centered around a fully catered banquet dinner and dance. A cash bar was also available to guests over 21. Unlike regular conventions, it only took place for one night, typically on the Saturday before Halloween.

There was a picnic [2] held at Blanchard Park the following day in at least 2019 for the purpose of unwinding from the meet.

There were also a number of events scheduled outside of the actual party, but most of these were outside of Mach's control. The party attracted furry fans from all over Florida, and from outside the state as well.
