Tails and Tornadoes Fur Con (TTFC)

Tails and Tornadoes Fur Con (TTFC) is absolutely taking the central United States by storm! Operating spectacularly out of Tulsa, Oklahoma, this phenomenally fast-growing convention perfectly merges the massive, high-energy production value of a major regional hotel-convention-center event with the incredibly welcoming, fiercely intimate feel of a tight-knit local community.

2026: Dinos, Drives, and Fluffy Vibes!

Running from September 4-6, 2026, the convention is unleashing an unbelievably creative "Dinos, Drives, and Fluffy Vibes!" theme! This brilliant aesthetic is specifically engineered as a "Retro-Dino" mashup—hilariously combining prehistoric elements with classic 1950s Drive-In culture to actively celebrate the monumental 100th anniversary of historic Route 66!

Unlike the vast majority of regional American cons, TTFC distinguishes itself by operating as a strictly 18+ convention by default. Attendees must be of legal age before the convention floor opens, which flawlessly enables uniquely tailored programming, deeply mature panels, and incredibly high-energy social events right out of the gate. Despite this adult-focused shift and their explosive attendance growth (rocketing well past 1,500 attendees!), the convention remains deeply committed to philanthropy, regularly raising astonishing amounts for the amazing Animal Rescue Foundation (ARF) in Bartlesville.

Getting There

Tulsa's infrastructure makes TTFC a completely dream-like geographical meetup for the Midwest and South:

• Flying: Tulsa International Airport (TUL) is phenomenally convenient. Operating just minutes from the core city, it completely bypasses the nightmarish gridlock of massive coastal airports while still fielding heavy, direct connections from major hubs like Dallas, Denver, and Chicago.
• The Route 66 Road Trip: Because the 2026 theme explicitly honors the historic highway, driving to TTFC is practically mandatory for the full aesthetic! Tulsa is magnificently accessible via I-44 (the Turner Turnpike), making it an unbelievably easy, deeply scenic road trip from massive Texas or Missouri furry populations.

Accommodation

The hotel block is the absolute center of gravity for the weekend:

• Main Venue (Renaissance Tulsa Hotel & Convention Center): A genuinely staggering, newly expanded interior property! Because TTFC operates heavy, mature, late-night programming due to its 18+ policy, securing a room directly inside the Renaissance is the ultimate play. It allows attendees to flawlessly transition from the raging 2 AM dances straight to their beds without ever navigating the Oklahoma heat.
• The Metro Zone: The hotel sits right in the highly developed southern corridor of Tulsa, meaning the immediate walking perimeter is completely stuffed with phenomenal mid-west dining, major steakhouses, and an ocean of extremely affordable overflow hotels if the primary block vanishes.

Highlights

• The Tulsa Powerhouse: An absolutely exploding regional anchor blending the heart of Oklahoma with massive convention scale.
• Dinos, Drives, and Fluffy Vibes!: A ridiculously charming, intensely creative "Retro-Dino" and 50s Drive-In mashup specifically honoring Route 66!
• Strictly 18+ Exclusive: Completely shedding family-friendly limits to allow for spectacular adult-focused programming, art, and legendary nightlife.
• Incredible ARF Charity: A fiercely dedicated community consistently raising thousands to support local animal rescue efforts.
