FURUM (Furs Upon Malaysia) is a furry convention taking place in Petaling Jaya from December 11 to 14, 2026. This edition, known as FURUM X, marks the tenth anniversary of the event. It serves as a retrospective journey through the history of the local community. The convention invites attendees to relive past adventures, including scenarios involving magic schools, robot apocalypses, and space travel. This theme highlights the growth of FURUM from a small gathering into a prominent regional event.
