Tokyo Kemono Festival (KemoFest) is a kemono convention in Tokyo organized by the Tokyo Kemono Festival Executive Committee. The organizers describe a Tokyo-style cultural festival built around fursuit interaction and participant-created activities. Their August 2026 closing post said "see you next year," so this guide tracks the expected 2027 edition without guessing its date or venue.
The organizer's 2026 closing post signals a return in 2027. As of September 15, 2026, the official site has not announced a 2027 date, venue, or ticket details. Do not assume the 2026 date or Fuchu venue will repeat.
The convention's participant-led "club activities" let attendees propose and share activities or exhibits around their interests. The official description also highlights fursuit character interaction and a flexible schedule, so visitors can choose activities as they go.
The official rules do not establish a general age policy, so this guide does not label the convention all-ages or adults-only.
The 2027 venue has not been announced, so wait for the organizer's location update before booking transportation. The Fuchu address below is for the 2026 edition only.
No 2027 venue or hotel has been announced. Plan lodging after the organizer publishes the new location, rather than assuming the 2026 Fuchu venue will return.
