Dutch FurCon (DFC) 2026 is scheduled for Aug 14-17, 2026 in Groesbeek, Netherlands.
Dutch FurCon (DFC) is a furry convention for the Netherlands furry community and its neighbours, held each summer at a holiday park near Groesbeek. With a relaxed, cabin-and-grounds atmosphere rather than a city hotel setting, DFC offers a laid-back weekend of fursuiting, vendors, panels, and dances.
Dutch FurCon returns August 14-17, 2026 at Vakantiepark de Oude Molen in Groesbeek. This is the convention's 11th edition. The theme and guests of honour for 2026 had not been publicly confirmed at the time of writing.
Registration pricing for 2026 was not yet published; check the official site for the latest ticket information and on-site lodging packages before booking.
Dutch FurCon's holiday-park setting sets it apart from hotel-based conventions: attendees stay in cabins on the grounds, creating a communal, retreat-like vibe where the whole site becomes part of the event. It is a friendly mid-sized European con, well placed for furries across the Netherlands, Belgium, and western Germany who want a summer weekend away with the community.

€200 all-inclusive: 3 nights, 9 chef-cooked meals, pannenkoeken
