Denfur (DF)

Denfur (DF) is Colorado's own furry convention, running from August 28 to 31, 2026, at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel in Denver. This is the big one for the Mountain West, drawing in thousands of furries for a weekend packed with panels, dances, and a bustling Dealer's Den. The 2026 edition leans into a 'Carnival Nocturne' theme, giving the whole event a slightly darker, more atmospheric vibe than your standard con.

The venue sits right on the 16th Street Mall, so you are steps away from food, coffee, and transit. It is a solid choice if you want to stay close to the action without needing a car. Just keep in mind that Denver is at 5,280 feet, so the altitude is real. Hydrate more than you think you need to, and pace yourself if you are fursuiting. The air is dry, and the extra effort of wearing a suit up here adds up quickly.

Denfur is run by Anthro Events Inc, a local nonprofit, and they have a long-standing partnership with Almost Home Adoptions. It is a community-focused event where the charity work feels genuine rather than tacked on. Whether you are a first-timer or a seasoned con-goer, the scale here is impressive, but the atmosphere stays welcoming. Check the official site for the latest schedule and registration details.
