Pawsome is unquestionably one of the most exciting, fiercely unique rising stars in the entire European circuit! Abandoning the chaotic, exhausting gridlock of massive city trade centers, this brilliant UK convention totally redefines the experience by operating as an incredibly intimate, fully immersive "exclusive-use" residential retreat nestled in the historic beauty of Gloucester.
Following a completely explosive debut year that sold out venue capacity with stunning speed, Pawsome is taking over the gorgeous Bowden Hall Hotel from October 1-5, 2026 with a spectacularly vibrant "Tiki" theme!
The absolute magic of Pawsome is its exclusivity. The convention essentially claims the entire hotel and its sweeping grounds, creating a phenomenally laid-back, private party atmosphere where attendees can genuinely decompress. Furthermore, Pawsome is legendary for its incredibly welcoming, liberal dress code--enthusiastically encouraging inflatable suits, latex, pup gear, and pony-play equipment (broadly animal-themed) completely alongside traditional fursuits!
Gloucester's positioning makes for a brilliant UK getaway:
