12:01:00 AM

FurryPinas 2019, the premiere Furry Convention in the region is just a few days away. We’re listing down everything that you need to know about the 2-day furry con!

For two-days attendees can get to enjoy a beach-themed summer extravaganza with FurryPinas 2019: Fun in the Sun. We have invaded the whole Bayanihan Center from June 8-9, 2019 and have set activities and the overall feel of the event would take you to the beach even though we’re in the middle of the metro!

Activities
There will be a mix of fursuit fun, on-site events, seminars and lessons happening all throughout the two days.


Most of the main activities will happen at the Campos Hall while we are also hosting social activities and workshops on conference room C. Meanwhile games on the event itself will be hosted over at conference room B.

And a staple for each Furrypinas convention, is the Talk and Panels that we have set to not just help our Furry Community, but also provide a safe avenue to introduce your friends to the fandom with talks centering on Getting Started on the Fandom (day one) with Danielle Frivola G. Frivaldo. Other talks and panels are scheduled to happen too from day 1 and this is happening at conference room D.

There will also be a Video Game Lounge with iAcademy where you can see Furry games in action.

There will also be a Fursuit and Cosplay lounge, and a Creative Lounge that’s partnered with Dong-A, Faber-Castel, and Deli. And of course, what would a convention be without food right? So we also have a dedicated Food Lounge on site.

Get To Know the Furries in FurryPinas 2019

11:37:00 PM
Kwento Ni Toto finds an interesting community and hobby to enjoy with. Yup there's something new (as for me) to attend to once a year, the FurryPinas! So, if you want to know more details about this read more and scroll down to check out the information about this event.

What is a Furry?: A Primer for FurryPinas 2019
We’ve gotten used to watching shows using anthromorphic creatures as their main characters to drive their story forward. Movies and shows like My Little Pony, Tom and Jerry, and even Digimon have animal characters that one way or another exemplify our human nature. But did you know that there’s a community of people that are fans of this story telling device?

And they are called furries.
So, what is a Furry then?

Furry is a hobby where the fans have an interest towards animal characters with human characteristics. Such characters can be found in many media such as movies, shows, games, literature, toys, cosplay, art, and many more, for any ages. Sometimes, “Furry” refers to the person who is a fan of the furry hobby. It can also be used to refer to “animal characters with human characteristics”.

Furry characters can be Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny, Crash Bandicoot, and many characters from shows such as Zootopia, The Lion King, Secret Life of Pets, How To Train Your Dragon, Kung Fu Panda, etc.

Who are into the hobby?
Furries come in all shapes and sizes. And when it comes to who’s into the hobby, the furry community has always been one of the more inclusive communities worldwide. That also is true to the Philippines furry community.

In fact, the PH Furry community has a whole slew of enthusiasts. Ranging from entrepreneurs, to artists, designers, even engineers and academians are active furries. Age wise, the Furry community is open to all ages, but majority of the members are around 18-24 years old. Difference?

While there’s a collective global community of Furries, the Philippines’ Furry community sets itself apart.

The local furry community is more open to people knowing that they’re Furries and welcome those who are familiar and not too familiar with the hobby. In fact, local Furries don’t hide what they are in the Philippines and are more than happy to explain their hobby to anyone who is interested or wants to know more about it.

This is also true in how the local community treats its conventions. FurryPinas, the annual premiere furry convention in the country has a more welcoming attitude than most furry conventions elsewhere. The organizers take on a more Eastern and Western attitude in the organization and aims to making the most amount of people happy while sharing the love of furry to furry Hobbyist and non-hobbyist alike.

This difference in stance makes FurryPinas a more observed furry convention within the region. About FurryPinas 2019

On its 2nd year, FurryPinas 2019 is the largest furry convention in Asia serving as the official annual hub for the furry hobby in the Philippines.

The convention aims to provide attendees a more active participation compared to other cons. Providing a more welcoming avenue for those who want to understand and know more about the hobby while providing a safe and happy space for Furries to just have fun, socialize, and enjoy the hobby as a group.

FurryPinas is set to happen on June 8-9, 2019 at the Bayanihan Center (Near SM Megamall). For more information about FurryPinas 2019 you can head to the FurryPinas 2019 site or fanpage you can also check out the Facebook event page to get updated
