Shouchao (兽潮兽聚) is a hotel-format furry gathering in Foshan, China.
Shouchao is a compact hotel gathering for visitors who want a structured weekend in the Pearl River Delta. The three-day, two-night format leaves room for both convention-floor activity and hotel-based social time. Its published application list also shows that the event is built around more than passive attendance, with places for vendors, stage contributors, signers, photographers, and staff. Foshan's location makes it a natural addition to a Guangdong trip alongside larger events in Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
By air: Foshan and the wider Pearl River Delta are served by nearby Guangzhou and Shenzhen airports. Check the organizer's current travel notice for the most practical airport and transfer combination.
By rail: High-speed rail links Foshan with Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and other major mainland cities. From the arrival station, use a Chinese ride-hailing or map app with the hotel name and full address.
By local transit: The hotel is on Wenhua South Road in Lecong Town, beside the Dongping transport area. Confirm the final event entrance and any organizer shuttle details before setting out.
The 2026 venue was InterContinental Foshan Dongping at No. 8 Wenhua South Road, Lecong Town, Shunde District, Foshan. Staying at the host hotel is the simplest option for a multi-day programme, especially when the organizer is selling a residential experience.
