Motor City Furry Convention is Michigan's 18+ anthropomorphic appreciation convention, for furries and furry fans alike. Come register at either Sponsor or Super Sponsor level and let our expert lounge staff show you why people come to party with us year after year. We have great panels, board games, video games, events, and so much more. This con is a labor of love and we aim to share that with all our guests. So come experience all the fun!
Oh, what a convention that was. Now that you've had a day or two to rest and reflect on this past weekend, we'd love to hear about your MCFC 2023 experience! Or let us know if you have an interesting idea for next year.
Good or bad, let us know how your convention went:
It’s December! The 2022 cons are pretty much behind us, so it's time to look forward to 2023, and MCFC in March!
With the convention around the corner, it's time to once again say...
Our vaccination policy is effectively unchanged from last year. You'll of course need to be fully vaccinated to attend. That includes the full original series, though we won't be checking for boosters. Checking for multiple vaccination dates gets complicated and we hope by checking for the first series this will streamline the process.
Though we do not require boosters we highly encourage everybody to get all appropriate boosters applicable to your situation.
If you've somehow skipped out on the COVID-19 vaccine up until now, it's finally your opportunity to get it done. You're considered fully vaccinated 2 weeks after your final dose of the primary series, which means the final day for that last shot is March 10th. For the 2-dose series vaccines (such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines) there's usually a 3 or 4 week wait between the 1st and 2nd dose. As such, you'll want to target your first dose by early February.
But why wait? They're still available free of charge, and probably at a location close to you!
Similarly, the mask requirement is largely unchanged: Face masks are highly recommended but not required in any portion of the convention space.
The types of proof we will accept is at this time still the same as before. The list includes but may not be limited to:
When you get to the con, be prepared to show your documentation to registration staff in order to receive your badge. We will not retain any of the documentation, or record any of the information. Just, no proof, no badge. And please don't send it to us ahead of time.
If you’re traveling internationally to attend MCFC, you might still need to take a COVID-19 test before you travel. The nearest location that provides PCR tests is:
CVS on Whittaker Rd (About 1.5 miles away from the convention)
Please confirm the requirements both to and from your country of origin, and plan ahead! Figure out what requirements you’ll have to meet and when so that your trip goes as smoothly as possible!
If you're not traveling internationally and just want to know before the convention (a very good thing) testing is available all over, including over the counter at multiple stores.
Yeah! Registration for MCFC 2023 is now open!
We're in Early Bird pricing, and that will last through the end of the year. In other words, plenty of time to get that registration in. But, it's open now if you want to go ahead and get it done!
In COVID terms, March is 100 years away. That's to say, a lot can change between here and there, and it's entirely impossible to predict. We're still working on a detailed policy, but if you've been vaccinated for a while assume you'll want to have the updated booster. But anyway, we'll have a more detailed policy closer to the con, while making sure you'll have plenty of time to be ready for it.
If you hadn't seen it before, we plan to have the hotel link available Monday, October 10th, 2022 at Noon, 12:00 PM Eastern.
The process for reserving a hotel room is entirely independent of registration. That's to say, you do not need to register first to be eligible for a hotel room.
On the contrary, you may wish to wait until you're sure you have a room before you register. Or, you can go ahead and get the registration done and out of the way now if you prefer. Up to you!
Well, okay!
We've just been given the green light to announce hotel room availability happening soon! We now have a date for when the hotel reservation link will be ready and available:
Monday, October 10th, 2022 at Noon, 12:00 PM Eastern
As usual, the link will be made available on the Hotel page via a scheduled update. We've seen rooms disappear quickly in previous years, so if you want to be there the moment it opens, that's when!
Panel and event submissions are now open! Got an idea for a panel you'd like to submit? Let us know:
