About Furcation
Furcation is a furry convention in the south of England, pitched as an alternative to the usual convention format and described as "Pontins/Butlins for Furries!". It takes place at holiday parks, with accommodation in chalets and caravans sleeping one to six people, usually near a beach, and combines a relaxed atmosphere with typical convention events such as a dealers' den, karaoke and DJ nights. It is organized by Furcation Ltd. and has an 18+ rating. The first Furcation was held October 14 to 17, 2016, at the Combe Martin Beach holiday park in Devon after a planned 2015 edition fell through. It later moved to the Sandaway Beach Holiday Park, the Sandy Glade Holiday Park in Brean and the Parkdean Lagoon Sandford Holiday Park in Poole, and attendance has grown from 90 to several hundred. Each year supports a charity, often the Ferne Animal Sanctuary.
