SeaFur (SeaFur)

What Are the Highlights of SeaFur?

• The Shanghai Anchor: An influential recurring convention series in one of Asia's largest cities.
• The 2026 Winter Run: Operating in February with the culturally rooted "傩祓岁破" aesthetic.
• Strong Travel Logistics: Easily reached via the PVG/SHA airports and the Shanghai Metro system.
• The Hotel Format: A hotel-hosted convention offering an immersive weekend at the Marriott Hotel Kangqiao rather than an expo-center setup.

How Do I Get to SeaFur?

Shanghai's infrastructure makes SeaFur well positioned for travel logistics:

• Flying (International & Domestic): Shanghai has two major hubs. Pudong International Airport (PVG) is the primary gateway for global attendees, while Hongqiao International Airport (SHA) services domestic flights and connections from neighboring Asian nations.
• The Maglev & Metro: From PVG, the Maglev train carries passengers into the city grid at 431 km/h (267 mph). From there, the extensive and affordable Shanghai Metro system connects throughout the city, including the Pudong convention zone.
• High-Speed Rail: If arriving from Beijing, Guangzhou, or other major Chinese cities, Shanghai's high-speed railway stations connect directly to the Metro network.

Where Should I Stay for SeaFur?

The hotel format is a defining feature of the SeaFur experience:

• Main Venue (Shanghai Marriott Hotel Kangqiao): A premium-tier property in the Pudong district. SeaFur's hotel-hosted format means room parties, lobby hangouts, and the main stage are all under one roof, creating a self-contained community environment.
• The Pudong Footprint: Because the Marriott is in Pudong, attendees are strongly advised to secure lodging in the official block. Navigating the scale of Shanghai during a convention weekend is easier when you are already staying at the venue.
