とらんすふぁ ('''TransFur''', the "animal transformation event") is currently the sole [[furry fandom|furry]] [[convention]] in Japan. Held in the city of [[Wikipedia:Kawasaki, Kanagawa|Kawasaki]] since 2005, the event aspires to cover the full spectrum of furry activities. It also appeals to related interests such as [[dragon]] fandom and has a strong tradition of [[fursuit]]ing (although non-fursuiters are welcome as well). There is no charge to attend the convention.
