Register for LVFC!

2026 Registration is currently restricted to: 2025 Super Sponsors, Lifetime Attendees/Sponsors, 2025 Furry Village Program recipients. It should open to everyone July 1st, 2025.

In order to attend LVFC, you must:

  • Be 21 or older. Please bring a valid, current photo ID; this should be government-issued and identify the age of the attendee. LVFC is a 21+ con, no exceptions. IDs which have been punched cannot be accepted, with or without temporary ID paperwork. Examples of valid identification include:
    • State issued driver license or ID
    • Military ID
    • Passport
    • Only government issued IDs will be accepted as proof of age.
  • Read, understand, and agree to all convention policies and any revisions thereof by registering. Failure to follow policies can result in revocation of your registration at the convention’s discretion with no entitlement to refund. These policies include but are not limited to:
  • Pay for registration. We do not accept cash or other physical payment methods (i.e. card reader); all payments should be made via our registration website on ConCat. We recommend registering as early as possible.

At-con, we will have a Help Desk for anyone with accessibility needs or issues registering.

LVFC does not sell day passes, but instead discounts registration as the weekend goes on.

We check for badges to access con spaces such as Dealers Den, our stages, or the Rooftop Party.

LVFC reserves the right to cancel any room in its hotel blocks without an associated registration.

Benefits of Registering Early

All our registrations are processed by the same system regardless of when they come in, and badges are issued on-demand, but there are several benefits to registering before the convention:

  • Early registrations have priority for contracted hotel rooms, many of which are among the cheapest in the city. Most of our hotel block cannot be booked without a registration.
  • You don’t have to worry about spotty Wi-Fi at-con delaying your ability to register/pay.
  • You don’t have to pull out your credit card in a crowded room at-con.
  • Earlier registrations help us predict attendance and better prepare for certain events.
  • If your plans change, you can receive a refund!

Registration Schedule for LVFC 2026

  • May 2025. Registration opens with a temporary cap of 233 Super Sponsors, 20 Sponsors, and 372 Attendees. At this time, only 2025 Super Sponsors, Lifetime Sponsors, Lifetime Attendees, vaccine raffle winners, and Furry Village Program recipients may book. Super Sponsor can initially only be purchased by those who had Super Sponsor at LVFC 2025. Dealers, VIPs, Staff, and Block 26 guests do not need to register at this time; they have a separate hotel block.
  • June 24th, 2025. Super Sponsor is open to anyone eligible to register.
  • July 1st, 2025. Registration cap remains, but anyone is able to register. Hotel bookings start later in July.
  • July 30th, 2025. Initial hotel reservation period concludes. All caps lifted and registration opens without restrictions.

Registration Tiers

For 2026, LVFC has four registration tiers: Attendee, Sponsor, Super Sponsor, and Lifetime Attendee.

Attendee ($99*)

*$60 on Saturday and $25 on Sunday of the event. You must purchase them after the clock hits 12 AM for those dates.

Attendees receive:

  • Access to the convention all weekend.
  • A convention badge.
  • A convention wristband to more easily enter 21+ areas.
  • Other swag TBD

Sponsor ($199)

Sponsors are people eager to support the convention, and receive Attendee perks plus the following additional benefits:

  • A convention T-Shirt
  • A Sponsor ribbon
  • Earlier access to registration.
  • Priority for Dealer Den tickets; you will have a limited window for exclusive access after Super Sponsors
  • Extra swag/benefits TBA

Super Sponsor ($299)

Super Sponsors REALLY want to support the con, and receive all previous benefits plus the following:

  • Priority for Dealers Den tickets. Supers will receive an exclusive window to grab tickets closer to the convention.
  • A Super Sponsor ribbon.
  • Earlier access to registration at-con.
  • Super Sponsors have early access to our hotel block; Super Sponsors are limited in number initially to ensure non-Supers also have a chance at a room. Once hotels have opened to general attendees, Super Sponsor no longer confers this benefit.
  • Guaranteed ability to buy a Super Sponsor ticket the following convention year, provided it is purchased within an exclusive time window. Once this time window elapses, tickets may be purchased by the general public too. We always reserve some Super Sponsor tickets for general purchase either way.
  • Extra swag/benefits TBA

Lifetime Attendee ($1200)

Lifetime Attendee is a premium tier for those planning to regularly return to our event.

  • Comped Super Sponsor attendance for your first year, then Attendee for every year LVFC exists. Comped Attendee has the at-con value and can be used as a discount on upgrades to Sponsor+ each year.
  • LVFC reserves the right to buy back Lifetime registrations after the first year for the face value at time of purchase.
  • Lifetime registrations are paid in installments of $600, $300, and $300.

Registration Questions

Why is there a temporary cap on registration?

A temporary cap on registration allows us to reduce the strain on the registration system while also allowing us to reduce the stress of securing a hotel room in our block. This is an alternative to a room raffle and first come, first serve. All caps are lifted after initial hotel booking is complete.

Why has registration increased in price?

Besides general inflation raising event costs, we also need to raise capital to expand our event offering. We need to offer better benefits to retain staff (about 80% of our staff travels to help with the event), be able to pay contractors for equipment, and run shuttles between our various properties (as it is not feasible to house all attendees on a single property). LVFC is committed to making sure the cost of general admission never rises above $100, barring insolvency if it does not. We are exploring the possibility of a hardship relief program for attendees, but we also encourage volunteering (once applications open) to gain a refund on admission.

Is there early bird pricing?

LVFC has retired early bird prices as of 2026 in favor of a flat year-round price for all registration tiers.

Do you offer day passes?

LVFC does not offer day passes, but instead discounts registration as the weekend goes on. This is because we partner with venue security for badge checks, so we want to minimize the number of badge variants.

Do you offer refunds if I can’t make it?

If you have purchased your registration, you can go to your order on ConCat and hit “Submit Refund Request.” Refunds are allowed at any time for any reason so long as a badge has not been picked up.

Why don’t you mail badges?

Furry convention attendees prefer personalized badges with their names on them, and mailing badges requires a lot of labor; badge printing has become more efficient since the 1980s, with badges being printed quickly on-site, making the wait negligible with adqeuate staff. In addition, verifying attendees in-person promotes community safety.

What does my badge pay for?

Badges cover the cost of venue hire, equipment rental, booking guests, supplies, and help us meet financial obligations such as buyout guarantees for rooms; these costs together are in the six digits. Even if you are only here for our many parties, please consider buying a badge; if we can’t meet our contractual obligations, the parties will go away too.
