Youth aged 7 through 17 receive the 40 USD discount at the Attendee level only. The page offers a Sunday-only day pass on site but does not publish its price, so dayPass is TBA. The official pages disagree about whether pre-registration is still open, so attendees should verify registration status before traveling; the rates above are the current values displayed by the convention.

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.
