Golden Leaves Con (GLC) 2026

Golden Leaves Con (GLC) 2026 is scheduled for Oct 28-Nov 1, 2026 at C'est la Vie / Panorama Hotel.

What Are the Highlights of Golden Leaves Con?

  • Alpine Venue: The C'est la Vie and Panorama Hotel combination in Hasliberg offers mountain views, a heated outdoor pool, and a setting that feels more like a retreat than a standard hotel convention.
  • Volunteer-Run Hospitality: GLC is known for its communal meal service and volunteer-driven kitchen, which keeps the atmosphere personal and distinguishes it from catered city events.
  • Themed Programming: Each year brings a new theme, from Toffee and the Argonauts (2024) to Konnichiwa (2025), with panels, games, and activities built around the concept.
  • Fursuit Walks and Outdoor Events: The mountain setting allows outdoor fursuit photo sessions and group walks through the alpine landscape surrounding the venue.

How Do I Get to Golden Leaves Con?

  • Flying: Zurich Airport (ZRH) is the easiest international arrival point for most overseas travelers.
  • Rail: Switzerland's rail network is the real advantage here. Most routes run through Interlaken and onward toward the Hasliberg area.
  • Mountain access: Final transit usually involves regional rail, bus, or arranged rides into the Hasliberg lodging area, so plan the last leg in advance.

Where Should I Stay for Golden Leaves Con?

  • Main lodging cluster: GLC traditionally uses the Panorama Hotel plus the C'est la Vie guesthouse in Hasliberg.
  • Residential focus: This is a stay-on-site style event, not a convention where most attendees scatter across a city.
  • Food model: GLC's volunteer-run hospitality is a major draw and part of why the con keeps its own character.
