Moonfest - Furry Convention in Paipa

Moonfest completely redefines the South American convention landscape! Abandoning the chaotic, fast-paced energy of heavy city cons, this brilliant event operates as an unbelievably relaxing, resort-style lakeside retreat perfectly nestled in the gorgeous landscapes of Paipa, Boyacá, Colombia!

2026: Thermal Waters and Tails

For their highly anticipated July 10-13, 2026 gathering, Moonfest is returning to the totally spectacular Estelar Paipa Hotel & Centro de Convenciones.

This isn't just a hotel; it's a completely premium, entirely pet-friendly retreat! Attendees are heavily encouraged to slow down and embrace the luxury convention lifestyle. Beyond the standard (but excellent) convention programming--like dedicated Dealers Dens and panel tracks--attendees have full access to the resort's legendary thermal hot springs, massive spa facilities, and breathtaking lakeside activities perfectly suited for incredible fursuit photography and deep community connection.
