'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 20,618 in [[Anthrocon 2026|2026]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==
[[File:Anthrocon Day.JPG|right|thumb|225px|Uncle Kage, AC's masco AnthroCat, and various furries celebrate '''Anthrocon Day''']]
Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

=== "Anthrocon Day" 2026 ===

In celebration of Anthrocon’s 20 years in Pittsburgh, [[Mayor Corey O’Connor]] declared July 1, 2026, “'''Anthrocon Day''',” prompting cheers and celebratory [[dance]]s from colorful furries who traveled from as far away as Mexico City.

Wednesday’s announcement offered a chance to reflect on what has become an unlikely economic engine for a former industrial city. Since its debut, the convention has generated $163.9 million in direct spending in [[Allegheny County]], while attendees have donated more than $600,000 to local [[charities]], including this year’s beneficiary, ''[[J&J Farms Animal Sanctuary]]''.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as '''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler'''['''s''']) not being fully [[costume]]d (in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode), showing some or all of their [[human]] skin (with the utter exemption of the [[head]], and some of the time [[handpaw]]s, and [[feetpaw]]s) for a series of reasons (most commonly being mobility and motion or suit heat/weight). Some poodlers will wear [[arm sleeve]]s with or without [[animal]] deco ([[stripe]]s, [[fur|fur pattern]]s, etc).

Nonetheless, AC allowed poodlers access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

=== 2026 heatwave ===

On July 3, 2026, it was announced that the [[Fursuit Block Party]] and [[Fursuit Parade]] were officially canceled for safety reasons regarding the ongoing [[heatwave]].<ref>[https://www.flayrah.com/9605/anthrocon-cancels-parade-and-block-party-due-continued-intense-heat ''Anthrocon cancels parade and block party due to continued intense heat''] post by [[Sonious]] on ''[[Flayrah]]''.

Dated July 3, 2026. Retrieved July 3, 2026.</ref>

No additional plans have been put forth regarding any other celebration and/or events.

=== 2026 AI controversy ===

[[Anthrocon 2026|On July 4 2026]], Anthrocon's [[convention committee]] released an official statement countering the accusations{{cn}} that the event's [[Art and Branding staff]] was using [[W:Artificial intelligence|generative artificial intelligence]] ('''AI''') on the creation of their official marketing media.<ref>[https://x.com/anthrocon/status/2073557475190542808 "ℹ️ Hey all, there have been some complaints and posts through the weekend regarding false claims of AI usage."] post by Anthrocon's [[concom]] on their official [[Twitter|X]] account. Dated July 4, 2026. Retrieved July 7, 2026.</ref>

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], which officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 at the [[W:Pittsburgh Today Live|Pittsburgh Today Live studios]] of [[W:KDKA-TV|CBS Pittsburgh]]<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w ''The stars of Anthrocon have taken over the PTL studios''] article on [[W:KDKA-TV|CBS Pittsburgh]]'s official [[YouTube]] account.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 20,618 in [[Anthrocon 2026|2026]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==
[[File:Anthrocon Day.JPG|right|thumb|225px|Uncle Kage, AC's masco AnthroCat, and various furries celebrate '''Anthrocon Day''']]
Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

=== "Anthrocon Day" 2026 ===

In celebration of Anthrocon’s 20 years in Pittsburgh, [[Mayor Corey O’Connor]] declared July 1, 2026, “'''Anthrocon Day''',” prompting cheers and celebratory [[dance]]s from colorful furries who traveled from as far away as Mexico City.

Wednesday’s announcement offered a chance to reflect on what has become an unlikely economic engine for a former industrial city. Since its debut, the convention has generated $163.9 million in direct spending in [[Allegheny County]], while attendees have donated more than $600,000 to local [[charities]], including this year’s beneficiary, ''[[J&J Farms Animal Sanctuary]]''.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as '''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler'''['''s''']) not being fully [[costume]]d (in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode), showing some or all of their [[human]] skin (with the utter exemption of the [[head]], and some of the time [[handpaw]]s, and [[feetpaw]]s) for a series of reasons (most commonly being mobility and motion or suit heat/weight). Some poodlers will wear [[arm sleeve]]s with or without [[animal]] deco ([[stripe]]s, [[fur|fur pattern]]s, etc).

Nonetheless, AC allowed poodlers access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

=== 2026 heatwave ===

On July 3, 2026, it was announced that the [[Fursuit Block Party]] and [[Fursuit Parade]] were officially canceled for safety reasons regarding the ongoing [[heatwave]].<ref>[https://www.flayrah.com/9605/anthrocon-cancels-parade-and-block-party-due-continued-intense-heat ''Anthrocon cancels parade and block party due to continued intense heat''] post by [[Sonious]] on ''[[Flayrah]]''.

Dated July 3, 2026. Retrieved July 3, 2026.</ref>

No additional plans have been put forth regarding any other celebration and/or events.

=== 2026 AI controversy ===

[[Anthrocon 2026|On July 4 2026]], Anthrocon's [[convention committee]] released an official statement countering the accusations{{cn}} that the event's [[Art and Branding staff]] was using [[W:Artificial intelligence|generative artificial intelligence]] ('''AI''') on the creation of their official marketing media.<ref>[https://x.com/anthrocon/status/2073557475190542808 "ℹ️ Hey all, there have been some complaints and posts through the weekend regarding false claims of AI usage."] post by Anthrocon's [[concom]] on their official [[Twitter|X]] account. Dated July 4, 2026. Retrieved July 7, 2026.</ref>

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], which officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 at the [[W:Pittsburgh Today Live|Pittsburgh Today Live studios]] of [[W:KDKA-TV|CBS Pittsburgh]]<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w ''The stars of Anthrocon have taken over the PTL studios''] article on [[W:KDKA-TV|CBS Pittsburgh]]'s official [[YouTube]] account.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 20,618 in [[Anthrocon 2026|2026]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==
[[File:Anthrocon Day.JPG|right|thumb|225px|Uncle Kage, AC's masco AnthroCat, and various furries celebrate '''Anthrocon Day''']]
Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

=== "Anthrocon Day" 2026 ===

In celebration of Anthrocon’s 20 years in Pittsburgh, [[Mayor Corey O’Connor]] declared July 1, 2026, “'''Anthrocon Day''',” prompting cheers and celebratory [[dance]]s from colorful furries who traveled from as far away as Mexico City.

Wednesday’s announcement offered a chance to reflect on what has become an unlikely economic engine for a former industrial city. Since its debut, the convention has generated $163.9 million in direct spending in [[Allegheny County]], while attendees have donated more than $600,000 to local [[charities]], including this year’s beneficiary, ''[[J&J Farms Animal Sanctuary]]''.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as '''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler'''['''s''']) not being fully [[costume]]d (in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode), showing some or all of their [[human]] skin (with the utter exemption of the [[head]], and some of the time [[handpaw]]s, and [[feetpaw]]s) for a series of reasons (most commonly being mobility and motion or suit heat/weight). Some poodlers will wear [[arm sleeve]]s with or without [[animal]] deco ([[stripe]]s, [[fur|fur pattern]]s, etc).

Nonetheless, AC allowed poodlers access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

=== 2026 heatwave ===

On July 3, 2026, it was announced that the [[Fursuit Block Party]] and [[Fursuit Parade]] were officially canceled for safety reasons regarding the ongoing [[heatwave]].<ref>[https://www.flayrah.com/9605/anthrocon-cancels-parade-and-block-party-due-continued-intense-heat ''Anthrocon cancels parade and block party due to continued intense heat''] post by [[Sonious]] on ''[[Flayrah]]''.

Dated July 3, 2026. Retrieved July 3, 2026.</ref>

No additional plans have been put forth regarding any other celebration and/or events.

=== 2026 AI controversy ===

[[Anthrocon 2026|On July 4 2026]], Anthrocon's [[convention committee]] released an official statement countering the accusations{{cn}} that the event's [[Art and Branding staff]] was using [[W:Artificial intelligence|generative artificial intelligence]] ('''AI''') on the creation of their official marketing media.<ref>[https://x.com/anthrocon/status/2073557475190542808 "ℹ️ Hey all, there have been some complaints and posts through the weekend regarding false claims of AI usage."] post by Anthrocon's [[concom]] on their official [[Twitter|X]] account. Dated July 4, 2026. Retrieved July 7, 2026.</ref>

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], which officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 at the [[W:Pittsburgh Today Live|Pittsburgh Today Live studios]] of [[W:KDKA-TV|CBS Pittsburgh]]<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w ''The stars of Anthrocon have taken over the PTL studios''] article on [[W:KDKA-TV|CBS Pittsburgh]]'s official [[YouTube]] account.

Anthrocon 2026

2026-07-07T02:32:34Z

Wikipedia editor: /* 2026 heatwave */

{{Anthrocon}}
'''Anthrocon 2026''' was the 29th annual [[Anthrocon]] [[furry convention]]. It was held on July 2–5, 2026, at the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David L. Lawrence Convention Center]] in [[W:Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania|Pittsburgh]], [[W:Pennsylvania|Pennsylvania]], USA.

The convention's theme was '''''Cryptid Creatures & Critters''''', while the [[charity]] partner was ''[https://jandjfarmsanimalsanctuary.org/| J & J Farms Animal Sanctuary]''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20260225043444/https://www.anthrocon.org/charity/ Charity] page on Anthrocon.org. Archived from [https://www.anthrocon.org/charity/ the original] on February 25, 2026. Retrieved July 4, 2026.</ref>

== Standing ==

Anthrocon retained its spot as the largest worldwide [[furcon]] with an attendance count of 20,618 [[attendee]]s.

== Anthrocon Day ==

2026 was the 20th anniversary (and 18th iteration) of '''Anthrocon''' being hosted in the American city of [[W:Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania|Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania]]. In celebration of Anthrocon’s 20 years in Pittsburgh, [https://www.pittsburghpa.gov/City-Government/The-Mayor Mayor Corey O’Connor] declared July 1, 2026, “'''Anthrocon Day'''”,<ref>[https://www.flayrah.com/9604/anthrocon-kicks-18th-year-held-pittsburgh-mayor-pledges-anthrocon-day Anthrocon kicks off 18th year held in Pittsburgh, mayor pledges 'Anthrocon Day'] - [[EberraWolf]] for ''Flayrah''. Dated July 3, 2026, retrieved July 4, 2026.</ref> prompting cheers and celebratory [[dance]]s from colorful [[furries]] who traveled from as far away as [[W:Mexico City|Mexico City]], Mexico.

The announcement offered a chance to reflect on what has become an unlikely economic engine for a former industrial city. Since its debut, the convention has generated $163.9 million in direct spending in [[W:Allegheny County, Pennsylvania|Allegheny County, Pennsylvania]], while attendees have donated more than $600,000 to local [[charities]], including this year’s beneficiary, ''[https://jandjfarmsanimalsanctuary.org J&J Farms Animal Sanctuary]''.

== 2026 heatwave ==

On July 3, 2026, it was announced that the [[Block Party]] and [[Fursuit Parade]] were officially canceled for safety reasons regarding the [[W:Heat wave|heatwave]].<ref>[https://www.flayrah.com/9605/anthrocon-cancels-parade-and-block-party-due-continued-intense-heat ''Anthrocon cancels parade and block party due to continued intense heat''] post by [[Sonious]] on ''[[Flayrah]]''. Dated July 3, 2026. Retrieved July 3, 2026.</ref>

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

The earliest known depiction of Anthrocat appeared as an Anthrocon licensed shirt design by [[Tani DaReal]] in 2013. <ref>http://anthrocon.org/node/12374/shirt-people-pittsburgh. Dated June 09, 2013. Retrieved June 19, 2013.</ref> Later the design was also used in the convention's welcome banner in 2017.<ref>https://www.wesa.fm/arts-sports-culture/2017-06-29/downtown-just-got-really-colorful-and-furry-as-anthrocon-kicks-off-for-12th-year-in-pittsburgh. Dated June 29, 2017.</ref>

The fully motion-captured 3D model version made by [[Fooma]] debuted on the Anthrocon 2024 opening ceremony,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zbBBpIFBXM</ref> whose body actor is [[Roxicat]] and voice actor is [[Tater]].{{cn}}

A [[Partial-fursuit]] representation was made by [[The Goth Bear]] in late 2023<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DL3RlQnASS6/</ref> <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8K7Ew3pXT6</ref> and debuted on [[Anthrocon 2024]] while performed by The Goth Bear as well<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C9G5NBKtAuP</ref><ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hd8-WJjnl</ref>. Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

The earliest known depiction of Anthrocat appeared as an Anthrocon licensed shirt design by [[Tani DaReal]] in 2013. <ref>http://anthrocon.org/node/12374/shirt-people-pittsburgh. Dated June 09, 2013. Retrieved June 19, 2013.</ref> Later the design was also used in the convention's welcome banner in 2017.<ref>https://www.wesa.fm/arts-sports-culture/2017-06-29/downtown-just-got-really-colorful-and-furry-as-anthrocon-kicks-off-for-12th-year-in-pittsburgh.

A [[Partial-fursuit]] representation was made by [[The Goth Bear]] in late 2023<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DL3RlQnASS6/</ref> <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8K7Ew3pXT6</ref> and debuted on [[Anthrocon 2024]] while performed by The Goth Bear as well<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C9G5NBKtAuP</ref><ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hd8-WJjnl</ref>. Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==

Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

The earliest known depiction of Anthrocat appeared as an Anthrocon licensed shirt design by [[Tani DaReal]] in 2013. <ref>http://anthrocon.org/node/12374/shirt-people-pittsburgh. Dated June 09, 2013. Retrieved June 19, 2013.</ref> Later the design was also used in the convention's welcome banner in 2017.<ref>https://www.wesa.fm/arts-sports-culture/2017-06-29/downtown-just-got-really-colorful-and-furry-as-anthrocon-kicks-off-for-12th-year-in-pittsburgh.

Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

The earliest known depiction of Anthrocat appeared as an Anthrocon licensed shirt design by [[Tani DaReal]] in 2013. <ref>http://anthrocon.org/node/12374/shirt-people-pittsburgh. Dated June 09, 2013. Retrieved June 19, 2013.</ref> Later the design was also used in the convention's welcome banner in 2017.<ref>https://www.wesa.fm/arts-sports-culture/2017-06-29/downtown-just-got-really-colorful-and-furry-as-anthrocon-kicks-off-for-12th-year-in-pittsburgh. Dated June 29, 2017.</ref>

The fully motion-captured 3D model version made by [[Fooma]] debuted on the Anthrocon 2024 opening ceremony,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zbBBpIFBXM</ref> whose body actor is [[Roxicat]] and voice actor is [[Tater]].{{cn}}

A [[Partial-fursuit]] representation was made by [[The Goth Bear]] in late 2023<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DL3RlQnASS6/</ref> <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8K7Ew3pXT6</ref> and debuted on [[Anthrocon 2024]] while performed by The Goth Bear as well<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C9G5NBKtAuP</ref><ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hd8-WJjnl</ref>. Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

The earliest known depiction of Anthrocat appeared as an Anthrocon licensed shirt design by [[Tani DaReal]] in 2013. <ref>http://anthrocon.org/node/12374/shirt-people-pittsburgh. Dated June 09, 2013. Retrieved June 19, 2013.</ref> Later the design was also used in the convention's welcome banner in 2017.<ref>https://www.wesa.fm/arts-sports-culture/2017-06-29/downtown-just-got-really-colorful-and-furry-as-anthrocon-kicks-off-for-12th-year-in-pittsburgh.

A [[Partial-fursuit]] representation was made by [[The Goth Bear]] in late 2023<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DL3RlQnASS6/</ref> <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8K7Ew3pXT6</ref> and debuted on [[Anthrocon 2024]] while performed by The Goth Bear as well<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C9G5NBKtAuP</ref><ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hd8-WJjnl</ref>. Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

The earliest known depiction of Anthrocat appeared as an Anthrocon licensed shirt design by [[Tani DaReal]] in 2013. <ref>http://anthrocon.org/node/12374/shirt-people-pittsburgh. Dated June 09, 2013. Retrieved June 19, 2013.</ref> Later the design was also used in the convention's welcome banner in 2017.<ref>https://www.wesa.fm/arts-sports-culture/2017-06-29/downtown-just-got-really-colorful-and-furry-as-anthrocon-kicks-off-for-12th-year-in-pittsburgh.

A [[Partial-fursuit]] representation was made by [[The Goth Bear]] in late 2023<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DL3RlQnASS6/</ref> <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8K7Ew3pXT6</ref> and debuted on [[Anthrocon 2024]] while performed by The Goth Bear as well<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C9G5NBKtAuP</ref><ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hd8-WJjnl</ref>. Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

The earliest known depiction of Anthrocat appeared as an Anthrocon licensed shirt design by [[Tani DaReal]] in 2013. <ref>http://anthrocon.org/node/12374/shirt-people-pittsburgh. Dated June 09, 2013. Retrieved June 19, 2013.</ref> Later the design was also used in the convention's welcome banner in 2017.<ref>https://www.wesa.fm/arts-sports-culture/2017-06-29/downtown-just-got-really-colorful-and-furry-as-anthrocon-kicks-off-for-12th-year-in-pittsburgh.

The fully motion-captured 3D model version made by [[Fooma]] debuted on the Anthrocon 2024 opening ceremony,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zbBBpIFBXM</ref> whose body actor is [[Roxicat]] and voice actor is [[Tater]].{{cn}}

A [[Partial-fursuit]] representation was made by [[The Goth Bear]] in late 2023<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DL3RlQnASS6/</ref> <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8K7Ew3pXT6</ref> and debuted on [[Anthrocon 2024]] while performed by The Goth Bear as well<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C9G5NBKtAuP</ref><ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hd8-WJjnl</ref>. Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==

Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

A [[Partial-fursuit]] representation was made by [[The Goth Bear]] in late 2023<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DL3RlQnASS6/</ref> <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8K7Ew3pXT6</ref> and debuted on [[Anthrocon 2024]] while performed by The Goth Bear as well<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C9G5NBKtAuP</ref><ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hd8-WJjnl</ref>. Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

The earliest known depiction of Anthrocat appeared as an Anthrocon licensed shirt design by [[Tani DaReal]] in 2013. <ref>http://anthrocon.org/node/12374/shirt-people-pittsburgh. Dated June 09, 2013. Retrieved June 19, 2013.</ref> Later the design was also used in the convention's welcome banner in 2017.<ref>https://www.wesa.fm/arts-sports-culture/2017-06-29/downtown-just-got-really-colorful-and-furry-as-anthrocon-kicks-off-for-12th-year-in-pittsburgh.

The fully motion-captured 3D model version made by [[Fooma]] debuted on the Anthrocon 2024 opening ceremony,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zbBBpIFBXM</ref> whose body actor is [[Roxicat]] and voice actor is [[Tater]].{{cn}}

A [[Partial-fursuit]] representation was made by [[The Goth Bear]] in late 2023<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DL3RlQnASS6/</ref> <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8K7Ew3pXT6</ref> and debuted on [[Anthrocon 2024]] while performed by The Goth Bear as well<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C9G5NBKtAuP</ref><ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hd8-WJjnl</ref>. Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

'''Anthrocon''' ('''AC''') is an annual American [[furry convention]] and one of the [[List of conventions by attendance|largest]] [[furcon]]s in the world, with an attendance of 18,357 in [[Anthrocon 2025|2025]].

== Overview ==

The [[convention]] was founded in 1997 as '''Albany AnthroCon''', which itself an offshoot of the [[furry]] [[W:Halloween|Halloween]] [[parties]] held by [[Aloyen Youngblood]]; when attendance pushed triple digits, he decided to book a hotel and organized it as a convention in 1997 with the aid of local friends, [[Points]], [[Rigel]], and others. In its first year, the event attracted approximately 500 attendees.

In late 1998-1999, Points transferred the [[chairmanship]] of the [[convention]] to [[Dr. Samuel Conway]]. They formally organized the group as '''Anthrocon Inc.''', later renamed the convention "Anthrocon," and relocated it to Pennsylvania.

Since 1997, Anthrocon's charity auction has donated over $240,000 to local charities. The [[Science Fiction]] [[W: Security|volunteer security force]], the [[Dorsai Irregulars]], provided security for the convention from 2002 until 2019.

== Incorporation and trademarks ==

'''Anthrocon, Inc.''' was incorporated as a [[W:Nonprofit organization|non-profit organization]] on June 25, 1998, registered as a [[W:501(c)|501(c)(7) social and recreation club]] in the state of Pennsylvania (entity [http://www.corporations.state.pa.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?1738650 2823650]). This classification differs from the [[W:501(c)(3)|501(c)(3)]] status of [[Midwest Furry Fandom]] and [[Anthropomorphic Arts and Education]]; most notably, donations are not tax-deductible to their donors, but in return, the company has more flexibility about its operations, and more leeway to restrict access to non-members, since it's not a club.

Applications to register the word "Anthrocon" and the [[:File:Anthrocon.gif|Anthrocon paw]] as a [[W:trademark|US trademarks]] were filed on [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77001861 September 18] and [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77042065 November 12, 2006]. According to these filings, the word "Anthrocon" was first used on February 1, 1997, while the paw logo was used from June 30, 1998.

== History ==
=== Locations and relocations ===

Anthrocon's first venue was the [[W:Hilton Hotels & Resorts|Hilton Hotel]] of [[W:Valley Forge, Pennsylvania|Valley Forge, Pennsylvania]] in 1999 and 2000. Due to a rapid increase in attendees, it was forced to relocate to the larger [[W:Adam's Mark|Adams Mark Hotel]] of [[W:Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]] in 2001, where it became the largest furry convention ever held, with 1,457 attendees. Attendance continued to grow, and by 2004, it was 2,406.

Attendance in 2005 dropped slightly to 2,373, exacerbated by the closure of the Adams Mark Hotel, the higher parking fees the new and unfamiliar [[W:Wyndham Worldwide|Wyndham Franklin Plaza]] hotel in downtown Philadelphia, and (possibly) due to [[W:Hurricane Dennis|Hurricane Dennis]]' effect on the southern United States, which closed many airports and prevented people from traveling.

Attendance increased again in 2006 with the move to the [[W:David L. Lawrence Convention Center|David Lawrence Convention Center]] in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reaching 2,489, but due to scheduling conflicts, the convention had to leave its regular July timeslot temporarily and was held on June 15-18.

The 2006 move to Pittsburgh was envisioned by AC's [[Board of Directors]] before the sale of the Adam's Mark Hotel took place due to AC's increasing attendance. AC began soliciting people's opinions about moving to Pittsburgh in October 2004.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20041030112340/http://www.anthrocon.org/info.cgi/ac2007 ''A new home for Anthrocon in 2007?''] post on Antrocon's official website. Retrieved June 1, 2025.</ref>

In 2007, AC was held again from July 5 to 8 at the David Lawrence Convention Center.

In 2008, total attendance reached 3,390. In 2010, it increased to 4,238 attendees and four official convention hotels. The convention's growth has historically averaged 14% yearly.

=== COVID-19 pandemic ===

In 2020, Anthrocon was not held in person due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] outbreak. [[Online convention]]s were held in 2020 and 2021, using [[W:Virtual workplace|virtual meeting spaces]] and [[VRChat]]. The convention returned to being in person in 2022, with attendees required to provide [[W:Vaccine passports during the COVID-19 pandemic|proof of vaccination]] and wear [[W:Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic|medical face masks]]. These requirements were rescinded in 2024.

=== Guest of honor ===

As of 2024, Anthrocon no longer has a designated [[Guest of Honor]](s).{{cn}}{{clarify}}

=== Fursuiting ===

Due to time and safety, the 2025 [[fursuit parade]] was capped off at (???). {{cn}}

=== Poodling ===

In 2025, Anthrocon put forth a new rule for the attending [[fursuiter]]s regarding the [[fursuit parade]], which was the banning of [[poodling]] during the event.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220620205129/https://www.anthrocon.org/parade-block-party/#parade-rules ''Parade Rules''] section on Anthrocon's official website. Retrieved July 11, 2025.</ref>

Also known as ''fursuit poodling''', poodling is the action of fursuiters (also called '''poodler[s]''') that show some or all of their [[human]] skin for a series of reasons in [[costume]], usually in [[partial]]/[[half-suit]] mode.

Nonetheless, poodlers were still allowed access to all areas of the event, both within and outside the convention venue.

== Anthrocon and Pittsburgh ==

Currently, Anthrocon operates with the support of the [[W:Pittsburgh|city of Pittsburgh]] and local businesses. AC's own ''[[Show Your Badge]]'' program{{clarify}} works with the city's own ''[https://www.visitpittsburgh.com Visit Pittsburgh]'', which allows [[congoer]]s to visit many of Pittsburgh's landmarks at a reduced cost.

The convention partners with more than a dozen hotels in the city's downtown, offering more affordable accommodations to many pre-registered attendees. It also charter buses from these hotels to the convention center, which attendees can use free of charge.

Some restaurants in downtown Pittsburgh offer Anthrocon-themed specials, most prominently [https://www.pizzaparma.us/ Fernando's] (now '''Pizza Parma'''), a pizzeria that re-themes itself to '''''Furryland''''' during the convention weekend.<ref>[https://www.pghcitypaper.com/news/furry-friends-pittsburgh-restaurants-welcome-anthrocon-furries-with-specials-signs-and-long-straws-9244633 ''Furry friends: Pittsburgh restaurants welcome Anthrocon furries with specials, signs and long straws''] article on the [[W:Pittsburgh City Paper|Pittsburgh City Paper]]. Dated July 04, 2018. Retrieved May 29, 2025.</ref>

Anthrocon generates substantial business for downtown Pittsburgh, with attendees [https://www.wtae.com/article/anthrocon-2024-pittsburgh-business-hotels/61503860 estimated to spend over $70 million] in 2024.

== Mascot(s) ==
[[File:Anthrocat fursuit.jpg|thumb|Anthrocat fursuit at [[Anthrocon 2024]].]]
Anthrocon's official [[mascot]] is '''Anthrocat''', a black and gold [[cat]], the same colors as the [[W:Flag of Pittsburgh|flag of Pittsburgh]], officially debuted on Jul 3, 2025 in PTL studios of CBS Pittsburgh.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObyX67sqH4w</ref> In fact, the idea of Anthrocat had been around for years before the announcement.

The earliest known depiction of Anthrocat appeared as an Anthrocon licensed shirt design by [[Tani DaReal]] in 2013. <ref>http://anthrocon.org/node/12374/shirt-people-pittsburgh. Dated June 09, 2013. Retrieved June 19, 2013.</ref> Later the design was also used in the convention's welcome banner in 2017.<ref>https://www.wesa.fm/arts-sports-culture/2017-06-29/downtown-just-got-really-colorful-and-furry-as-anthrocon-kicks-off-for-12th-year-in-pittsburgh. Dated June 29, 2017.</ref>

The fully motion-captured 3D model version made by [[Fooma]] debuted on the Anthrocon 2024 opening ceremony,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zbBBpIFBXM</ref> whose body actor is [[Roxicat]] and voice actor is [[Tater]].{{cn}}

A [[Partial-fursuit]] representation was made by [[The Goth Bear]] in late 2023<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DL3RlQnASS6/</ref> <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8K7Ew3pXT6</ref> and debuted on [[Anthrocon 2024]] while performed by The Goth Bear as well<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C9G5NBKtAuP</ref><ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hd8-WJjnl</ref>. Later, the bodysuit part was made to complete the fursuit in June 2025.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DK4w6NEMPF7/</ref> It was the first physical form of the mascot and not official till the announcement of that year.

The puppet version made by [[YveTheRed(Margaret Flanagan)]] is used in the debut. Though actually, the puppet was revealed by the artist on Instagram one day earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/DLoSEpuRtsm/c/17858806407443990</ref> During [[Anthrocon 2025]] the puppet was manipulated and voiced by Tater, who also voiced 3D model.<ref>https://www.furtrack.com/p/1301640</ref>

A small number of Anthrocat plush toys are gifted to ultrasponsers, and other merchandise such as mugs are available for purchase on the 2025 convention.{{cn}}

A panel called "Meet Anthrocat" was held on Anthrocon 2025 in which attendees can meet the mascot in both fursuit form and puppet form as well as the supporting team behind it.<ref>https://anthrocon.sched.com/event/25LmD/meet-anthrocat</ref> In general, puppet and fursuit would not appear simultaneously at one location, but an exception was made on this panel.

Anthrocon 1999

2026-03-07T00:49:19Z

Wikipedia editor:

{{Anthrocon}}
'''Anthrocon 1999''' was the first [[Anthrocon]] to be held in the Philadelphia area; more specifically, it was held at the Valley Forge Hilton (now The Alloy by DoubleTree) in King of Prussia, PA, on 1-4 July, 1999. This convention was also the debut of [[Uncle Kage|Dr. Samuel "Kagemushi" Conway]] as chairman, a position he has held to date.

Themed as the "Furry Revolution", in keeping with the historic locale, Anthrocon 1999 welcomed [[S. Andrew Swann]] and [[Vicky Wyman]] as its Guests of Honour.

The convention drew 804 attendees, almost as many attendees as [[ConFurence 10]], and just over 100 more than a new convention in California known as [[Further Confusion]].

The charity auction raised $3,485 for the Great Valley Nature Center.<ref>[http://www.anthrocon.org/history-charity-1999 Post] on the Anthrocon website. Dated March 28, 2006. Retrieved May 20, 2016.</ref>
