From attendees
The convention itself. Accommodation is compulsory and charged on top
Added to any booking. Contents of the sponsor pack not yet announced
The 100 attendance fee is NOT a badge price and cannot be paid alone - every ticket requires accommodation booked through Furcation's own registration system, so the real minimum is 195. The fee was only itemised separately because the convention became VAT registered, and all prices are per person including VAT. Accommodation runs by unit and grade: compact caravans 95 to 150, main-stay chalets and caravans 100 to 170, lodges 140 to 190 across the Value, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum grades. Extra nights on Thursday 19 or Monday 23 November cost 40 to 60 each depending on grade, or 80 to 120 for both. There are NO day passes. Bringing a pet requires contacting Registration first.
Furcation 2026 returns to Sandy Glade Holiday Park in Brean, Somerset, on the coast between Brean and Burnham-on-Sea. Most attendees drive: leave the M5 at junction 22 (Burnham-on-Sea) and follow the coast road north through Berrow to the park. By rail, Highbridge & Burnham is the nearest station, on the Bristol-Taunton line with Great Western Railway connections; a short taxi ride covers the last stretch to the park. Bristol Airport (BRS) is the most convenient airport, roughly 25 miles north.

Accommodation is part of the Furcation experience. Attendees book shared lodges, chalets and caravans at the holiday park rather than traditional hotel rooms; for 2026 the con's units sit in the Sandy Meadows area of Sandy Glade, with the chalets closest to the clubhouse. Allocating a lodge with friends is the usual approach, keeping costs well below a hotel stay. Nearby Burnham-on-Sea covers supermarkets and shopping for self-catering runs.

3 quirks & policies that don't fit the highlights grid.
UK's holiday-park furcon: whole-park exclusive use, no day tickets
Furcation is the UK''s original holiday-camp furry convention and explicitly positions itself against the hotel-con model, "Think Pontins/Butlins for Furries," in the con''s own words. Each November it takes exclusive use of a coastal holiday park''s entire grounds out of season, with attendees booking whole caravans, chalets, or lodges (not hotel rooms) on a sliding scale.
How Frantic Eufuria and a cancelled Clevedon launch became Furcation
Furcation''s first event was 2016, but planning began for a 2015 launch at Warren''s Holiday Village in Clevedon, contracts were signed before Warren''s pulled the plug four months out. Staff hunted for another host; John Fowler Holidays stepped in with Combe Martin Beach Holiday Park, kicking off an 8-year, 4-venue partnership across North Devon and Somerset (Combe Martin 2016-2017, Sandaway Beach 2018, Sandy Glade Brean 2019/2022/2023).
Holton Heath, a Royal Naval Cordite Factory site as the venue village
The 2024 venue''s village, Holton Heath, west of Poole in Dorset, was the site of a major Royal Naval Cordite Factory that manufactured propellant for British naval shells through both World Wars; the factory was bombed in WW2 and the site is now the Holton Heath Nature Reserve, with Morden Bog National Nature Reserve immediately northwest.
