The Heist Is On!
The vault is open, and the priceless FurFest heirloom is on display, just asking to be… appropriated. Our gang of resourceful raccoons are plotting and planning to make sure that the operation goes off flawlessly. It’s all going down from December 5-8, 2024 in Rosemont, Illinois at Midwest FurFest 2024!
Our team has cleverly devised a broad array of distractions including some amazingly talented Guests of Honor, fantastic events, and all sorts of panels and performances. No one will suspect there’s a heist going on! Want to keep up with all of the planning?

We come together to celebrate the furry fandom, which includes art, literature and performances based around anthropomorphic animals.Midwest FurFest is a production of Midwest Furry Fandom, Inc, a 501(c)3 (non-profit corporation).
Since 2000, the convention has grown from 388 attendees to more than 13,000; the largest convention of its type in the world. We are proud to have raised over $800,000 for various social, wildlife, and animal related charities.
