Golden State Fur Con (GSFC) is a furry convention held at the Hilton Los Angeles Airport (LAX) in Los Angeles, California, serving the Southern California furry community. The 2025 edition drew 1,942 attendees and raised over $10,000 for charity, with programming that leans into LA's urban culture, including late-night events such as Night Markets and drag shows.
Based at the Hilton Los Angeles Airport (LAX), about half a mile from the international airport, the convention runs March 13-15, 2026 with its "Airplane!" theme. Jackaloo has been announced as a Guest of Honor for the 2026 event.
GSFC designs its programming to match its urban environment. Following previous iterations like "Urban LA" and "Back to the 80s," attendees can expect themed programming that draws on LA's talent pool, featuring performance art, dance competitions, and fursuit theatricals.
A notable part of GSFC's programming is its focus on nightlife. Recognizing that standard convention schedules do not always fit the LA setting, the convention runs late-night events like Night Markets and drag shows.
