Pawska 2026 is scheduled for Nov 26-29, 2026 in Gdańsk, Poland. The announced theme is Night of the Werewolves.
Pawska is an English-speaking international furry convention held in the northern Polish coastal city of Gdańsk. Made by furries for furries, Pawska deliberately keeps an old-fashioned, intimate scale, prioritising cozy, social events and close relationships between staff and attendees inside a protective community bubble.
Pawska returns November 26-29, 2026 at Hotel Amber in Gdańsk under the theme "Night of the Werewolves." It is an 18+ event, with total attendance capped at 300 to preserve the convention's close-knit atmosphere. Registration opens on 20 June 2026.
Standard registration is 199 PLN (roughly €47). Because spots are limited, attendees are encouraged to register promptly once sign-ups open.
Pawska is built for furries who want the warmth of a small con that larger events struggle to recreate. With a hard cap on numbers and an emphasis on social and cozy programming, it offers a tight, welcoming environment where you can actually get to know fellow attendees and staff. As an English-speaking convention drawing fursuiters from across Europe, it is an easy pick for international travellers who want a more personal experience.
