<div>== Furlandia ==<br />
<br />
Negative on that edit. [[Furlandia]] is now using the new '''[[Wikifur]] Unified Convention Template''', as dozens and dozens of other [[furry convention]]s articles are now using (slowly being implemented on the remaining ones. The [[Anthrocon]] article is considered Prime, edit wise).<br />
<br />
You may add data around the established layout, but we are not going back to the old βeach convention its own templateβ. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 07:35, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
:A huge amount of data on your edits needs to be moved to [[convention]]βs year template (right side), so, as in this case, it doesnβt overrun the main entry. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 07:40, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
<br />
== Example ==<br />
<br />
Here is a convention article [https://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=R%C3%BCgen_Furcon&diff=632629&oldid=632235 being implemented with the new template]. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 07:46, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
<br />
== Furlandia Rework ==<br />
Hi Spirou, thank you for the feedback on [[Furlandia]], and sorry. I didn't know about the template. I've reworked my edit to keep the established layout and only add appropriate info. I'll update each convention page at a time (using the new template). Please let me know if anything still doesn't fit the template.<br />
<br />
== Year templates ==<br />
<br />
Hmm, no, plz. The convention template is only to be used on the main [[furry convention]] entry, not the years themselves (check out [[Anthrocon]]'s year template entries).<br />
<br />
Right now, they are bloated duplicate entries that are hiding the direct information from the reader (no need for External links, do not use the Attentace table, same with programming [unless specific year ones], and so on). - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 19:18, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
<br />
== Year pages ==<br />
<br />
Okay, I'll fix them. Please give me some time to do so. - {{unsigned|Artemispaws}}<br />
:Take your time: I am amazed/impressed that you can/did provide so much information regarding Furlandia that we have been trying to fill in for all these years, plus it really helps the article overall, giving it a proper historical enhancement for readers to peruse. In short, most excellent job.ππ½ππ½ππ½ - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 19:47, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
<br />
== Thank you ==<br />
<br />
Thank you so much! T-T I've been working my tail off on this. I'm happy to help and finally get them updated.<br />
<br />
== Year Pages Updated ==<br />
<br />
I have updated Furlandia's year pages (2013-2027) and condensed them to match Anthrocon's year pages. Hoping these are acceptable, but let me know if I missed anything, and I can adjust accordingly. -[[User:artemispaws|artemispaws]] ([[User talk:artemispaws|talk]]) 6:14 PM, 3 October 2026 (PST)</div>

You may add data around the established layout, but we are not going back to the old βeach convention its own templateβ. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 07:35, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
:A huge amount of data on your edits needs to be moved to [[convention]]βs year template (right side), so, as in this case, it doesnβt overrun the main entry. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 07:40, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />

== Example ==<br />

== Furlandia Rework ==<br />
Hi Spirou, thank you for the feedback on [[Furlandia]], and sorry. I didn't know about the template. I've reworked my edit to keep the established layout and only add appropriate info. I'll update each convention page at a time (using the new template). Please let me know if anything still doesn't fit the template.<br />
<br />
== Year templates ==<br />
<br />
Hmm, no, plz. The convention template is only to be used on the main [[furry convention]] entry, not the years themselves (check out [[Anthrocon]]'s year template entries).<br />
<br />
Right now, they are bloated duplicate entries that are hiding the direct information from the reader (no need for External links, do not use the Attentace table, same with programming [unless specific year ones], and so on). - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 19:18, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
<br />
== Year pages ==<br />
<br />
Okay, I'll fix them. Please give me some time to do so. - {{unsigned|Artemispaws}}<br />
:Take your time: I am amazed/impressed that you can/did provide so much information regarding Furlandia that we have been trying to fill in for all these years, plus it really helps the article overall, giving it a proper historical enhancement for readers to peruse. In short, most excellent job.ππ½ππ½ππ½ - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 19:47, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />

<br />
'''Furlandia''' is an annual American [[furry convention]].<br />
<br />
== Overview ==<br />
<br />
Furlandia is tradionally held over [[W:Memorial Day|Memorial Day weekend]]. Founded in 2013 by a group of Portland-area [[furries]], it is produced by ββRainfurrest Anthropomorphics Internationalββ (ββRAInββ), a [[501(c)(3) nonprofit organization]]. <br />
<br />
The event has grown from 280 attendees in 2013 to 4,395 in 2026, ranking 14th among furry conventions worldwide.<ref name=ConList>[[List of conventions by attendance]], WikiFur. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><ref name=2026About>[https://furlandia.org/2026/about.html About Furlandia (2026)]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Furlandia was founded by [[Atso Fox]] and a group of college-aged furs who wanted Portland to have a furry convention of its own. They planned the first event in a few months, with [[GEAR Con]] founder [[Stephen Couchman]] lending his convention experience. The name came from the television series ''[[W:Portlandia|Portlandia]]'', which also inspired the original logo and the first theme, ''Put a Tail on It''.<ref name=ConBook2023>''Furlandia 2023 Convention Book'', "Remembering 10 Years of Furlandia," pp. 3β12. Rainfurrest Anthropomorphics International, 2023.</ref><br />
<br />
[[Furlandia 2013]] was held May 10β12, 2013, at the University Place Hotel & Conference Center in downtown Portland, drawing 280 attendees.<ref name=2013FA>[https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4629491 ''Congratulations!''] post on Furlandia's [[Fur Affinity]] account. Dated May 13, 2013. Retrieved May 13, 2013.</ref><br />
<br />
=== Joining RAIn ===<br />
<br />
After the first convention, the organizers asked RAIn's [[board of directors]] to bring Furlandia under the nonprofit. Furlandia became a RAIn event beginning with [[Furlandia 2014]], chaired by [[Triss Winterdusk]] with then-RAIn president [[Gene Armstrong]] as [[co-chair]].<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== Locations and relocations ===<br />
<br />
Furlandia moved to the Sheraton Portland Airport Hotel in 2014, which remained its home through 2025. In 2026, it moved to the Hyatt Regency Portland. [[Furlandia 2027]] will be held May 7β9, 2027, at the Portland Marriott Downtown Waterfront. These dates fall outside Memorial Day weekend, and Furlandia plans to return to its usual weekend in 2028.<ref name=2027Home>[https://furlandia.org/ Furlandia's homepage]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><br />
<br />
=== Furry history meta theme ===<br />
<br />
From 2014 to 2019, Furlandia's themes followed a "furry history" meta theme, with each year's theme set during a specific time period, starting with 300 BCE and ending with 1967.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== COVID-19 pandemic ===<br />
<br />
[[Furlandia 2020]] was planned for May 21β24, 2020, with the theme ''Episode 8''. Organizers cancelled the 2020 and [[Furlandia 2021|2021]] conventions due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]]. Furlandia returned in May 2022, keeping the ''Episode 8'' theme.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== Logo ===<br />
<br />
After the 2026 convention, Furlandia adopted a new logo designed by [https://www.instagram.com/zapphiresergal/ Zapphire Sergal]. The design combines the outline of Oregon, a paw print, and a rose, a reference to Portland's nickname, the City of Roses. Its primary version uses a rainbow palette to represent the diversity of the furry fandom, especially its LGBTQIA+ members. The previous logo was designed by [[Kitsumi]].<br />
<br />
== Mascot(s) ==<br />
<br />
Furlandia's first [[mascot]] was '''Foster''', a [[fox who appeared on the 2013 attendee badges.<ref>[https://www.furaffinity.net/view/10394477/ ''Foster β Furlandia mascot''] on [[Fur Affinity]]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref> From 2015 to 2026, the characters on each year's con book cover served as unnamed mascots.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />

'''Furlandia''' is an annual [[furry convention]] held in [[W:Portland, Oregon|Portland, Oregon]], traditionally over [[W:Memorial Day|Memorial Day weekend]]. Founded in 2013 by a group of Portland-area [[fur]]s, it is produced by [[Rainfurrest Anthropomorphics International]] (RAIn), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Furlandia has grown from 280 attendees in 2013 to 4,395 in 2026, ranking 14th among furry conventions worldwide.<ref name=ConList>[[List of conventions by attendance]], WikiFur. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><ref name=2026About>[https://furlandia.org/2026/about.html About Furlandia (2026)]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><br />
<br />
== Overview and history ==<br />
Furlandia was founded by [[Atso Fox]] and a group of college-aged furs who wanted Portland to have a furry convention of its own. They planned the first event in a few months, with [[GEAR Con]] founder [[Stephen Couchman]] lending his convention experience. The name came from the television series ''[[W:Portlandia|Portlandia]]'', which also inspired the original logo and the first theme, ''Put a Tail on It''.<ref name=ConBook2023>''Furlandia 2023 Convention Book'', "Remembering 10 Years of Furlandia," pp. 3β12. Rainfurrest Anthropomorphics International, 2023.</ref><br />
<br />
[[Furlandia 2013]] was held May 10β12, 2013, at the University Place Hotel & Conference Center in downtown Portland, drawing 280 attendees.<ref name=2013FA>[https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4629491 ''Congratulations!''] post on Furlandia's [[Fur Affinity]] account. Dated May 13, 2013. Retrieved May 13, 2013.</ref><br />
<br />
=== Joining RAIn ===<br />
After the first convention, the organizers asked RAIn's [[board of directors]] to bring Furlandia under the nonprofit. Furlandia became a RAIn event beginning with [[Furlandia 2014]], chaired by [[Triss Winterdusk]] with then-RAIn president [[Gene Armstrong]] as [[co-chair]].<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== Locations and relocations ===<br />
Furlandia moved to the Sheraton Portland Airport Hotel in 2014, which remained its home through 2025. In 2026, it moved to the Hyatt Regency Portland. [[Furlandia 2027]] will be held May 7β9, 2027, at the Portland Marriott Downtown Waterfront. These dates fall outside Memorial Day weekend, and Furlandia plans to return to its usual weekend in 2028.<ref name=2027Home>[https://furlandia.org/ Furlandia's homepage]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><br />
<br />
=== Furry history meta theme ===<br />
From 2014 to 2019, Furlandia's themes followed a "furry history" meta theme, with each year's theme set during a specific time period, starting with 300 BCE and ending with 1967.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== COVID-19 pandemic ===<br />
[[Furlandia 2020]] was planned for May 21β24, 2020, with the theme ''Episode 8''. Organizers cancelled the 2020 and [[Furlandia 2021|2021]] conventions due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]]. Furlandia returned in May 2022, keeping the ''Episode 8'' theme.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== Logo ===<br />
After the 2026 convention, Furlandia adopted a new logo designed by [https://www.instagram.com/zapphiresergal/ Zapphire Sergal]. The design combines the outline of Oregon, a paw print, and a rose, a reference to Portland's nickname, the City of Roses. Its primary version uses a rainbow palette to represent the diversity of the furry fandom, especially its LGBTQIA+ members. The previous logo was designed by [[Kitsumi]].<br />

== Mascot(s) ==<br />
Furlandia's first [[mascot]] was Foster, a fox who appeared on the 2013 attendee badges.<ref>[https://www.furaffinity.net/view/10394477/ ''Foster β Furlandia mascot''] on [[Fur Affinity]].

<br />
Negative on that edit. [[Furlandia]] is now using the new '''[[Wikifur]] Unified Convention Template''', as dozens and dozens of other [[furry convention]]s articles are now using (slowly being implemented on the remaining ones. The [[Anthrocon]] article is considered Prime, edit wise).<br />
<br />
You may add data around the established layout, but we are not going back to the old βeach convention its own templateβ. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 07:35, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
:A huge amount of data on your edits needs to be moved to [[convention]]βs year template (right side), so, as in this case, it doesnβt overrun the main entry. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 07:40, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
<br />
== Example ==<br />
<br />
Here is a convention article [https://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=R%C3%BCgen_Furcon&diff=632629&oldid=632235 being implemented with the new template]. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 07:46, 3 October 2026 (EDT)<br />
<br />
== Furlandia Rework ==<br />
Hi Spirou, thank you for the feedback on [[Furlandia]], and sorry. I didn't know about the template. I've reworked my edit to keep the established layout and only add appropriate info. I'll update each convention page at a time (using the new template). Please let me know if anything still doesn't fit the template.</div>

'''Furlandia''' is an annual [[furry convention]] held in [[W:Portland, Oregon|Portland, Oregon]], traditionally over [[W:Memorial Day|Memorial Day weekend]]. Founded in 2013 by a group of Portland-area furs, it is produced by [[Rainfurrest Anthropomorphics International]] (RAIn), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Furlandia has grown from 280 attendees in 2013 to 4,395 in 2026, ranking Oregon's premier furry convention 14th among furry conventions worldwide.<ref name=ConList>[[List of conventions by attendance]], WikiFur. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><ref name=2026About>[https://furlandia.org/2026/about.html About Furlandia (2026)]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
=== Founding (2013) ===<br />
Furlandia was founded by [[Atso Fox]] and a group of college-aged [[fur]]s who wanted Portland to have a furry convention of its own. The group planned the first event in a few months, holding early meetings at the Portland State University library. [[GEAR Con]] founder [[Stephen Couchman]] lent his convention experience to the effort.<ref name=ConBook2023>''Furlandia 2023 Convention Book'', "Remembering 10 Years of Furlandia," pp. 3β12. Rainfurrest Anthropomorphics International, 2023.</ref><br />
<br />
The name came from the television series ''[[W:Portlandia|Portlandia]]'', which also inspired the original logo and the first-year theme, ''Put a Tail on It''.<ref name=ConBook2023 /> [[Furlandia 2013]] was held May 10β12, 2013, at the University Place Hotel & Conference Center in downtown Portland. It drew 280 attendees<ref name=2013FA>[https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4629491 ''Congratulations!''] post on Furlandia's [[Fur Affinity]] account. Dated May 13, 2013. Retrieved May 13, 2013.</ref> and raised approximately $2,000 for the selected charity, Portland PAW Team.<br />
<br />
=== Joining RAIn (2014) ===<br />
After the first convention, the organizers asked RAIn's [[board of directors]] to bring Furlandia under the nonprofit. Furlandia became a RAIn event beginning with [[Furlandia 2014]]. That year, [[Triss Winterdusk]] served as chair, with then-RAIn president [[Gene Armstrong]] as [[co-chair]].<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== Sheraton Portland Era (2014β2019) ===<br />
In 2014, Furlandia moved to the Sheraton Portland Airport Hotel, which remained its home through 2025. That same year, Furlandia introduced a "furry history" meta theme, with each year's theme set during a specific time period (see [[#Event History|Event History]]).<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
Attendance reached 763 for [[Furlandia 2016]], ranking it 22nd among furry conventions worldwide.<ref name=2017About>[https://furlandia.org/2017/about.html About Furlandia (2017)]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref> [[Furlandia 2017]] hosted six Guests of Honor, the most in its history.<ref name=2017Home /> In 2018, attendance surpassed 1,000 for the first time. [[Furlandia 2019]] drew 1,205 attendees, the highest before the pandemic.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== COVID-19 Hiatus and Return (2020β2023) ===<br />
[[Furlandia 2020]] was planned for May 21β24, 2020, with the theme ''Episode 8''. Organizers cancelled the 2020 and 2021 conventions due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]].<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
They returned to the Sheraton in May 2022, keeping the ''Episode 8'' theme and welcoming 982 attendees.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
2023 marked Furlandia's tenth anniversary under chair Rhys Redmane, one of the founding staff members. There were no formal Guests of Honor. Instead, every attendee received a Guest of Honor ribbon, in keeping with the theme ''Your Character Here''. The con book included a ten-year retrospective of Furlandia's history.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== Growth and Relocation (2024βPresent) ===<br />
Attendance doubled in 2024, rising from 1,009 to 2,060.<ref name=2024Summary>[https://x.com/Furlandia/status/1794902719729410151 "Furlandia 2024 achieved an attendance of 2060 people!

<br />
In 2026, Furlandia moved to the Hyatt Regency Portland. That year drew a record 4,395 attendees and 525 fursuit parade participants.<ref name=2026About /> The charity raffle raised $6,653 for The Pixie Project.<ref name=2026Summary>[https://furlandia.org/2026/ Report] from their Official Website. Retrieved June 22, 2026.</ref> After the 2026 convention, Furlandia introduced a new logo.<br />
<br />
Furlandia 2027 will be held May 7β9, 2027, at the Portland Marriott Downtown Waterfront. The theme is ''Ready Furry One'', inspired by ''[[W:Ready Player One|Ready Player One]]''. It celebrates furries in gaming and showcases video games from the Atari era to the present day. Revo, the official 2027 mascot designed by [[PlushArcade]], represents the theme. These dates fall outside Memorial Day weekend, and Furlandia plans to return to its usual weekend in 2028.<ref name=2027Home>[https://furlandia.org/ Furlandia's homepage].

== Logo Update ==<br />
After the 2026 convention, Furlandia adopted a new logo designed by [[Zapphire Sergal]]. The design combines the outline of Oregon, a paw print, and a rose, a reference to Portland's nickname, the City of Roses. The logo comes in several color variations. Its primary version uses a rainbow palette to represent the diversity of the furry fandom, especially its LGBTQIA+ members.<br />
<br />
The previous logo was designed by [[Kitsumi]]. Furlandia's original 2013 logo was a parody of the ''Portlandia'' logo.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
<!-- When the new logo is uploaded, add it here and in the infobox: [[File:Furlandia Logo 2026.png|225px]] --><br />
<br />
== Mascot(s) ==<br />
Furlandia's first [[mascot]] was Foster, a fox who appeared on the 2013 attendee badges.<ref>[https://www.furaffinity.net/view/10394477/ ''Foster β Furlandia mascot''] on [[Fur Affinity]]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref> In 2014, another fox named Athena took his place, dressed as the Greek goddess.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
From 2015 to 2026, Furlandia did not name an official mascot. Instead, the characters on each year's con book cover became the face of that year's theme. A named mascot returned in 2027 with Revo, a video game-inspired Novabeast.<br />

'''Furlandia''' is an annual [[furry convention]] held in [[W:Portland, Oregon|Portland, Oregon]], traditionally over [[W:Memorial Day|Memorial Day weekend]]. Founded in 2013 by a group of Portland-area furs, it is produced by [[Rainfurrest Anthropomorphics International]] (RAIn), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Furlandia has grown from 280 attendees in 2013 to 4,395 in 2026, ranking Oregon's premier furry convention 14th among furry conventions worldwide.<ref name=ConList>[[List of conventions by attendance]], WikiFur. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><ref name=2026About>[https://furlandia.org/2026/about.html About Furlandia (2026)]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref><br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
=== Founding (2013) ===<br />
Furlandia was founded by [[Atso Fox]] and a group of college-aged [[fur]]s who wanted Portland to have a furry convention of its own. The group planned the first event in a few months, holding early meetings at the Portland State University library. [[GEAR Con]] founder [[Stephen Couchman]] lent his convention experience to the effort.<ref name=ConBook2023>''Furlandia 2023 Convention Book'', "Remembering 10 Years of Furlandia," pp. 3β12. Rainfurrest Anthropomorphics International, 2023.</ref><br />
<br />
The name came from the television series ''[[W:Portlandia|Portlandia]]'', which also inspired the original logo and the first-year theme, ''Put a Tail on It''.<ref name=ConBook2023 /> [[Furlandia 2013]] was held May 10β12, 2013, at the University Place Hotel & Conference Center in downtown Portland. It drew 280 attendees<ref name=2013FA>[https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4629491 ''Congratulations!''] post on Furlandia's [[Fur Affinity]] account. Dated May 13, 2013. Retrieved May 13, 2013.</ref> and raised approximately $2,000 for the selected charity, Portland PAW Team.<br />
<br />
=== Joining RAIn (2014) ===<br />
After the first convention, the organizers asked RAIn's [[board of directors]] to bring Furlandia under the nonprofit. Furlandia became a RAIn event beginning with [[Furlandia 2014]]. That year, [[Triss Winterdusk]] served as chair, with then-RAIn president [[Gene Armstrong]] as [[co-chair]].<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== Sheraton Portland Era (2014β2019) ===<br />
In 2014, Furlandia moved to the Sheraton Portland Airport Hotel, which remained its home through 2025. That same year, Furlandia introduced a "furry history" meta theme, with each year's theme set during a specific time period.<br />
<br />
Attendance reached 763 for [[Furlandia 2016]], ranking it 22nd among furry conventions worldwide.<ref name=2017About>[https://furlandia.org/2017/about.html About Furlandia (2017)]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref> [[Furlandia 2017]] hosted six Guests of Honor, the most in its history.<ref name=2017Home /> In 2018, attendance surpassed 1,000 for the first time. [[Furlandia 2019]] drew 1,205 attendees, the highest before the pandemic.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== COVID-19 Hiatus and Return (2020β2023) ===<br />
[[Furlandia 2020]] was planned for May 21β24, 2020, with the theme ''Episode 8''. Organizers cancelled the 2020 and 2021 conventions due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]].<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
They returned to the Sheraton in May 2022, keeping the ''Episode 8'' theme and welcoming 982 attendees.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
2023 marked Furlandia's tenth anniversary under chair Rhys Redmane, one of the founding staff members. There were no formal Guests of Honor. Instead, every attendee received a Guest of Honor ribbon, keeping in theme with ''Your Character Here''. The con book included a ten-year retrospective of Furlandia's history.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
=== Growth and Relocation (2024βPresent) ===<br />
Attendance doubled in 2024, rising from 1,009 to 2,060.<ref name=2024Summary>[https://x.com/Furlandia/status/1794902719729410151 "Furlandia 2024 achieved an attendance of 2060 people!

<br />
Furlandia 2027 will be held May 7β9, 2027, at the Portland Marriott Downtown Waterfront. The theme is ''Ready Furry One'', inspired by ''[[W:Ready Player One|Ready Player One]]''. It celebrates furries in gaming and showcases video games from the Atari era to the present day. Revo, the official 2027 mascot designed by [[PlushArcade]], represents the theme. These dates fall outside Memorial Day weekend, and Furlandia plans to return to its usual weekend in 2028.<ref name=2027Home>[https://furlandia.org/ Furlandia's homepage].

== Logo Update ==<br />
After the 2026 convention, Furlandia adopted a new logo designed by [[Zapphire Sergal]]. The design combines the outline of Oregon, a paw print, and a rose, a reference to Portland's nickname, the City of Roses. The logo comes in several color variations. Its primary version uses a rainbow palette to represent the diversity of the furry fandom, especially its LGBTQIA+ members.<br />
<br />
The previous logo was designed by [[Kitsumi]]. Furlandia's original 2013 logo was a parody of the ''Portlandia'' logo.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
<!-- When the new logo is uploaded, add it here and in the infobox: [[File:Furlandia Logo 2026.png|225px]] --><br />
<br />
== Mascot(s) ==<br />
Furlandia's first [[mascot]] was Foster, a fox who appeared on the 2013 attendee badges.<ref>[https://www.furaffinity.net/view/10394477/ ''Foster β Furlandia mascot''] on [[Fur Affinity]]. Retrieved October 3, 2026.</ref> In 2014, another fox named Athena took his place, dressed as the Greek goddess.<ref name=ConBook2023 /><br />
<br />
From 2015 to 2026, Furlandia did not name an official mascot. Instead, the characters on each year's con book cover became the face of that year's theme. A named mascot returned in 2027 with Revo, a video game-inspired Novabeast.<br />
