Second try[edit]
Midwest FurFest 2021 was a carbon copy of Midwest FurFest 2020, the convention that was canceled[1][2] the prior year due to the worldwide advent of the Coronavirus disease 2019, most commonly known as COVID-19, or just COVID, an infectious disease[3] caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
It used the same theme as MFF 2020's theme (Intergalactic), along with the same Guests of Honor scheduled for that year.
2021 was the last year MFF had a convention book and it was purely digital. The primary purpose of the convention book is to provide schedule information about events at the convention, which the 'Sched' program does much more efficiently and up to date.
Midwest FurFest 2021 had an attendance of 9,332 people, and helped raise over $74,303 for MCP Chicago.[4]
