The experience
What's special
Further Confusion, often shortened to FurCon or FC, is an annual furry convention held at the San Jose Convention Center in downtown San Jose, California. It is produced by Anthropomorphic Arts and Education, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit for which the convention was the first and remains the largest sponsored event, run by a team the organizer describes as more than 250 volunteers. The organizer states the convention draws 'an attendance of over 4,000 and growing.' The 2027 edition runs January 14 to 18 and offers five-day Attendee, Sponsor, Super Sponsor and Benefactor memberships alongside single-day Friday, Saturday and Sunday passes; children 12 and under attend free with a Kid-in-Tow badge

🅿 Parking
On site parking available. Convention Center Public Parking is $25/day self-parking with no in-and-out privileges, per the Travel page's 'Parking around the convention' table. The same page's separate hotel guest-parking table lists different self-parking figures at some of the same hotels (e.g. Hilton San Jose $28/day there versus $39/day in the 'parking around the convention' table); both figures are reproduced as published rather than reconciled, since the organizer does not explain the discrepancy on the page

Accessibility & comfort
What the organiser or venue publishes about getting around, and what they do not.
An Accessibility desk operates near Con Ops for at-con assistance; services include help with lines (escort to the front or a chair, from any nearby volunteer), reserved accessible seating, and hotel accommodation requests (room, floor or refrigerator needs) routed to [email protected].
Attendees with accessibility needs may bring a caregiver to accompany them under a copy of their own badge (in a different label colour) at no extra membership cost, provided the caregiver stays with them at all times
Attendees 13-17 receive badges allowing access to all convention features except those marked for mature audiences only (some panels and Art Show sections); dealers are required to restrict mature materials from minor-badge holders.
Read the full notes
Ages 13-14 may attend as full members but must be supervised by an adult member and sign a Parental Consent form at Registration. Ages 15-17 may attend unsupervised with a signed and notarized Parental Consent form and their own accepted photo ID; an unsupervised minor without a notarized form is turned away, and FurCon 'can not and will not accept any adult's permission offered via phone or email.'
Confirm your specific needs with the organiser's access team before you travel.
