NordicFuzzCon

NordicFuzzCon (abbreviated NFC) is an annual furry convention that takes place in Sweden. Its first iteration was in 2013. It is the largest Scandinavian furry convention and the third-largest in Europe, with 1,149 attendees in 2019; roughly a quarter were Swedish, while another half hailed from Germany, Norway, the UK, Finland, and the Netherlands.

Mausie & Iris
NordicFuzzCon's mascot is a lovable "raus" (combination of mouse and rat) known as Mausie. Mausie has grayish fur, brown eyes, and has a blue bow tied to his tail. Mausie premièred as a fursuit during the opening ceremony of NordicFuzzCon 2015.

At the NordicFuzzCon 2019 opening ceremony, Iris was introduced to share mascot duties with her cousin, Mausie. Like her cousin, she is also a raus. Iris has brown and beige fur, blue eyes, and has a baby blue bow tied to her tail.

Pictures, reference sheets, and more information about the convention's mascots can be found on the NordicFuzzCon website.

Fursuits - Gotta Catch 'Em All
In 2017, NordicFuzzCon had Japan as the theme and introduced a game called Fursuits - Gotta Catch 'Em All. The way the game works is that each participating fursuiter gets a code written on their fursuit badge, and all attendees can enter that code into the NordicFuzzCon phone app or website to "capture" the fursuiter. When signing up as a hunter, attendees also chose a team to join. The game features lists of the most active hunters, most caught fursuiters, and the team with the most amount of points.

Conventions
As of 2021, eight instances of the convention have taken place, plus one online convention. A ninth is announced for 2022.

* NFC@Home was the first online convention, it replaced the 2021 convention due to the [COVID-19] pandemic.

† Announced during the Closing Ceremony. The 2020 number has been additionally confirmed with the head of registration.

†† Attendance is based on the number of members in the Discord server by the end of the convention.

‡ NFC@Home ran for four consecutive weekends throughout March, each with their own theme.

‡‡ Several previous guests of honour, including EoSFoxx, JD, Kéké Flipnote and Pointedfox were invited to host and participate in certain events as “special guests”.
