2027: Quest for Shiny Re:Migrated

The next edition is scheduled for September 10-12, 2027 at the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis. The convention's own Stats and Administrivia page also lists future 2028 and 2029 dates, so this is a published schedule rather than a date inferred from the 2026 weekend. The organizer announced the Quest for Shiny Re:Migrated theme in its 2026 closing report and said registration would open after the 2026 registrations are wrapped up. The Hyatt is preparing to expand the convention onto its fourth floor for 2027. No 2027 Guests of Honor, registration price, or charity partner had been announced by mid-October 2026, and pre-registration had not opened.

2026: Be Kind, Rewind

Furry Migration 2026 ran September 11-13 at the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis under the Be Kind, Rewind theme. The official stats page reports 3,836 attendees and $7,595 donated to Minnesota Pocket Pet Rescue. The organizer's closing report put that at 1,405 more attendees than 2025, growth of 57% in one year. NightlineZ, Outsidewolves and Planet Clue were the Guests of Honor, with d.notive as Special Guest. The 2026 edition did not run a downtown fursuit parade because the organizer cited venue layout, occupancy, and fire-safety limits.

What Are the Highlights of Furry Migration?

  • The Minnesota Original: The state's first furry convention, and still its largest.
  • Quest for Shiny Re:Migrated: The theme for 2027, announced in the organizer's 2026 closing report.
  • Downtown Minneapolis: Located at the Hyatt Regency with access to Nicollet Mall dining.
  • Shoulder Season Timing: September scheduling offers mild Midwest weather suited for outdoor suiting.

How Do I Get to Furry Migration?

Minneapolis has strong transit connections for convention travelers:

  • Flying: Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) is a Delta Air Lines hub with non-stop service from most major U.S. cities. The Blue Line light rail connects MSP to downtown Minneapolis in about 25 minutes.
  • Driving: The Hyatt Regency sits on Nicollet Mall in the city center. Interstate 94 and Interstate 35W provide direct highway access from across the Midwest.
  • Local Transit: The Metro Transit light rail and bus network cover the downtown core, and the Hyatt is within walking distance of several stops.

Where Should I Stay for Furry Migration?

  • Hyatt Regency Minneapolis: The convention hotel on Nicollet Mall. Booking the con room block keeps you steps from all programming, and the Hyatt's skyway connection provides climate-controlled access to downtown restaurants and shops.
  • Nearby Alternatives: Several hotels line Nicollet Mall and the surrounding downtown blocks. Minneapolis's enclosed skyway system connects many of them, which is a major advantage if the September weather turns cool.

Notes on Furry Migration

3 quirks & policies that don't fit the highlights grid.

  • Hyatt Regency Minneapolis is pre-booked through 2029

    The official Stats & Administrivia page publishes Furry Migration''s dates and venue four years out: Hyatt Regency Minneapolis on 2026 (Sept 11-13), 2027 (Sept 10-12), 2028 (Sept 8-10), and 2029 (Sept 6-8).

  • Stacked cashless: both the Hyatt and the con accept no cash

    The Hyatt Regency Minneapolis is fully cashless: credit/debit/contactless (Apple Pay/Google Pay) only at check-in, MPLS Market, Prairie Kitchen & Bar, and every Hyatt-operated F&B outlet inside convention space.

  • MNeurodivergent partnership: Quiet Space + two-color accessibility tier

    Furry Migration partners with MNeurodivergent (a Minnesota nonprofit, also a nonprofit-ambassador-table resident at the con) to run a designated Quiet Space in the Hennepin room on the 2nd floor next to Con Ops.
