AnthroTales is a Belgian furry convention debuting May 14-17, 2026 at the Van der Valk Hotel Mons Congres & Spa in Mons. Organized by AnthroTales Events ASBL, the event centers on narrative-driven programming guided by its mascot, an anthropomorphic deer called The Archivist, with bilingual French and English content.
Organized by AnthroTales Events ASBL, the convention separates itself by leaning heavily into narrative and lore. Attendees are invited to follow the convention's beloved mascot, an anthropomorphic deer known as The Archivist, through a series of "fluffy adventures."
For its highly anticipated debut from May 14-17, 2026 at the luxurious Van der Valk Hotel Mons Congrès & Spa, the theme is "The Solstice Symphony." Expect a deeply musical, magical aesthetic influencing everything from the social dances to the panel tracks!
Operating smoothly in both French and English, AnthroTales is designed to be highly welcoming to international travelers while proudly representing the local Belgian community. The beautiful spa hotel venue provides the perfect mix of high-energy convention staples (like a bustling Dealers' Den and a dedicated Arcade area) and deep, relaxing downtime.
AnthroTales spent 2025 in development, guided by its 'Archivist' mascot, to prepare for its 2026 debut 'The Solstice Symphony' in Mons, Belgium.
