Golden State Fur Con
Golden State Fur Con (GSFC) is an annual three-day furry convention held in Irvine, California, USA, organized by Corgi Events.
The event was first held April 19-21, 2019 at the Hilton Irvine Orange County Airport Hotel. There were 1230 attendees (including 232 in the fursuit parade) and $11,242 donated for the Judith A Bassett Canid Education and Conservation Center (JABCECC).[1]
The theme was "The Roaring Twenties", and the guests of honor were artist Pulex,[2] musicians Fox Amoore and Pepper Coyote,[3] and fursuit building studio Mischief Makers.[4]
Golden State Fur Con 2020 was to be held April 3-5, but was postponed to August 28-30 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[5], until it's eventual cancellation on June 11, 2020 due to the difficulty of having a convention at this time.[6]. Those not able to attend this date, or Golden State Fur Con 2021 (to be held April 9-11, 2021) or another Corgi Events con, can obtain a refund.[7]
Programming[edit]
The convention offers a dealer's den, autograph sessions, concerts, dances/rave, gaming (arcade, roleplay, tabletop, trading card, video), karaoke, a fursuit parade, fursuit dance competition, charity auctions, panels, and Q&As.
