The Perthfur Gathering (or PFG) is a large, bi-annual furmeet that takes place in Perth, Western Australia.

The most recent PFG took place on 6 March 2010. The organisers were Cyrin, Foxronyo, Jack Wolf and Sirukie.

[edit] Format

The PFG is a free-form event, providing a large open space for attendees with only a few scheduled activities. Furs are encouraged to create their own fun, spawning a range of memorable happenings, from a race with giant inflatable toys to an impromptu dealers den). The event is open to all furries (and furry-friendly non-furs), and has previously attracted attendees from country towns and other Australian states. Fursuits and other furry attire are welcome, as are sketchbooks, electronic devices and cameras.

One meal is typically provided (usually lunch), while attendees are encouraged to make their own arrangements for the other. BYO alcohol is permitted however, due to the venue, this does not exclude under-18s from attending.

Traditionally, smaller warm-up and follow-up events are held on either side of the gathering.
