Patas 2026

Patas is a charity furry convention running from December 11 to 13, 2026, at the Sorocaba Park Hotel in Sorocaba, Brazil. This three-day hotel takeover brings together fursuiters, artists, and gamers for a tight-knit community experience in the interior of Sao Paulo state. The event operates on a unique social model where the default ticket includes a food donation, directly supporting local NGOs in the region. It is a smaller, community-driven alternative to larger national events, focusing on genuine connection and shared culture.

The programming leans into the GameFur theme with dedicated spaces for board games, RPGs, and arcade-style activities. You will find a full Artist Alley for live commissions, panels, and workshops spread across the venue. The Fursuit Lounge provides a comfortable area with fans and changing facilities, ensuring everyone stays cool and happy. Late-night DJ sessions and dance floors keep the energy up, while the hotel setting offers a relaxed backdrop for socializing. It is a welcoming space for both seasoned attendees and newcomers curious about the fandom.

Sorocaba is roughly 100 km west of Sao Paulo city, making it accessible by car or bus for those coming from the capital. The hotel serves as both the venue and the primary lodging option, with rooms available for attendees. This setup creates a cohesive environment where you can stay, play, and meet people without the hassle of commuting. It is a practical, warm, and inclusive event that prioritizes community support and fun.
