About H-Con
H-Con is an annual German furry convention held each autumn, first at the Petershof in Erbach, Odenwald, Hesse, between Frankfurt and Heidelberg, and later near Bühl in the Black Forest. It is hosted by the AFC-Group, which also organized AYCE, with Atalon Deer of the H-Con Committee as its main organizer. It bills itself as an "old-time" furry convention where every participating fur becomes part of the staff and the food supply is all-you-can-eat. The number of on-site participants was limited to 50, later 60, and each edition has a tail-themed title and a "Dead Dog Night" after-party.
