Furry Migration (FM) is Minnesota's first and largest furry convention, organized by the non-profit Minnesota Furs (MNFurs). Held at the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis, it drew 2,801 attendees in 2025 and raised nearly $7,000 for The Street Dog Coalition.
Taking over the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis right on the famous Nicollet Mall, the September 11-13, 2026 convention leans into analog nostalgia with its "Be Kind, Rewind" theme.
This 90s VHS throwback appeals to established "Greymuzzle" attendees who lived the era, while also tapping into the growing popularity of analog-horror and retro-tech aesthetics among younger fans.
Furry Migration takes advantage of September "Shoulder Season." By landing between the peak summer crowds and the cold Minnesota winters, the convention offers favorable conditions for its Fursuit Parades, charity auctions, and social dances.
