Santiago Anthro Fest - Furry Convention in Chile (SAFE)

Santiago Anthro Fest (SAFE) is a strictly 18+ furry convention held in Santiago, Chile, organized by the Furcrew group. Its 2025 debut drew 550 attendees to the Almacruz Hotel y Centro de Convenciones, and community trackers reported a $2,140,000 CLP donation total.

2026: Cyber Metropolis

Following a debut that used a "Truth Hunters" narrative, SAFE shifts to a "Cyber Metropolis" cyberpunk theme for its February 26 - March 1, 2026 run.

The debut 2025 event drew 550 attendees and community trackers reported a $2,140,000 CLP donation total, though a specific named beneficiary has not yet been reliably sourced.

SAFE strictly prioritizes an adult-focused, immersive environment. The convention features Dealers' Dens, Artists' Alleys, arcade setups, and late-night raves kicking off Friday night. The convention also offers tiered activities designed for their premium "NetRunner," "Mercenary," and "CyberPsycho" ticket holders.
