About Furpocalypse
Furpocalypse is a Halloween-themed furry convention in Connecticut that raises money for animal and environmental charities. It was founded by former FurFright staff after FurFright ended in 2013, to continue the tradition of an annual Halloween furry convention in the state. The first Furpocalypse was held October 31 to November 2, 2014, at the Crowne Plaza in Cromwell, and after the pandemic it moved to the Armon Hotel & Conference Center in Stamford in 2022 and to the Hilton Stamford in 2024. Its charities have included the United States War Dog Association, True Colors and, since 2022, Q-Plus CT. Attendance has grown from 1,200 in 2014 to over 3,000 in 2025.
