'''Irishfurries''' is a regional group for furs in [[Ireland]], with the aim of being a friendly, professional and welcoming community for the entire island of Ireland. The group organises meets both large and small, in a variety of places around the island, with the most common location being Dublin, but with frequent Cork meets, and mini-meets at most Irish anime conventions.

'''Bran''' is the official IrishFurries mascot since 2016.

The official website is [https://www.irishfurries.com/ irishfurries.com]. The group also have channels and chatrooms hosted using Telegram and Discord.

==History==
Irishfurries in its modern form has been running since around 2009, when Sofox set up a forum system for furries around the island to use, however meets had been organised and a group established for many years already by this time. The website has evolved considerably since then, with new forum software and design in 2014.

As a group of furs geographically spread across the island, online chat was and continues to be a significant part of the group's presence; originally using IRC ([irc://irc.furnet.org/irishfurs #irishfurs]) on [[FurNet]], then moving for a time to Skype. Irishfurries currently maintain active chat spaces on both Telegram and Discord.
There are three official IrishFurries Telegram [[#Links|channels]] - an ''announcement'' channel, a ''safe-for-work'' chatroom, and a ''not-safe-for-work'' chatroom.

Whilst generally in the past sticking with arranging regular meets for the community, 2017 saw the first IrishFurries "Furry Not New Year" party (or FNNY for short). This is an annual event that takes place every January in Dublin.

==Organisation and Meets==
The group is managed by committee, with [[Zuki SudoWolf|Zuki]] currently chair as of 2018. All act as the moderation team for IrishFurries' Telegram and Discord chatrooms, maintain the various profiles and websites, and collectively organise meets and events.

There are a variety of meets organised, location and activity varies; this can include simple coffee-and-art meets, local entertainment venues such as Dublin Zoo, or even in parallel with other public events, such as the Bray Air Show.
There are regularly occurring events such as Board Game Café meets and VRChat meets.
Regional meets at other locations such as Cork, Galway and elsewhere on the island are arranged by community members too. Community members are encouraged to bring new meet ideas and locations to the events team, provided they are suitable.
There are often meets at anime and gaming conventions such as ''Akumakon'', ''Kaizoku Con'', and ''Q-Con''.

An annual New Years Party is also organised in early January, called FNNY or "Furry Not New Years". This attracts a large gathering, with 2025's event selling 280 tickets.
