Furvana is a coastal destination convention held at the Ocean Shores Convention Center in Ocean Shores, Washington. The 2025 edition drew 1,291 attendees and raised $16,500 for SeaLife Response + Rehab + Research. Its beachfront location allows attendees to walk directly from convention programming onto the Pacific shoreline.
Taking place at the Ocean Shores Convention Center, the upcoming September 4-6, 2026 iteration returns with the "On the High Seas!" theme.
The nautical theme ties into the local environment. The convention center sits adjacent to the public beach, allowing attendees to walk from panels directly to the Pacific Ocean shoreline. Beach safety is integrated into the panel programming, creating a coastal experience that extends beyond the convention center walls.
Drawing well over 1,200 attendees, Furvana explicitly positions inclusivity as its highest priority. Managed by Furvana LLP, the event welcomes and supports under-represented communities, representing a core value for the Pacific Northwest fandom. They also drive significant charity work, recently raising over $16,500 for SeaLife Response + Rehab + Research.
