Further South UK

Hey everyone, have you checked out our schedule of activities we're running for you? Which ones are you most interested in?

One week to go, do you have your travel plans sorted?

Coming into Portsmouth by train? You can stop off at either Southsea or Harbour station, both on the same line, may want to get a bus if you don't fancy a twenty minute walk with your fursuit and luggage either way.

Only a few days to go.
Who's coming back for a second year, and who's never been to a furry event before? Let us know in the comments.

Remember to come prepared for the Beach Party fun, even if the weather isn't baking hot and we're not allowed sand inside, we're still putting on a lovely party atmosphere for you, why not come dressed up for it too?

Hey Everyone
Further South 2026 is coming up soon, I hope we'll see you all there.

March 6th-9th, and all four days for only £65 per person, go grab your tickets now.

We have music, games, dealers den, activities, fursuits, raffles, charity auction and much more.

Watch this space for details.

Last final last chance to get an activity, meet-up, talk, tutorial or other event added to our schedule, got some room to squeeze you in Friday or Monday or that little gap Saturday morning

Still open for a couple more DJs, including spaces in the big UV dance party, don't make our current line-up have to work two sets each.
If you know anyone that might be interested, send them our way.

hey, that's us

Convention is only a few days away and we're making the final arrangements to print all the schedules for our guests, but if you ask nicely, we might be able to squeeze you in

Not long left to go, but there's still time to make arrangements. Non-residential tickets are on sale all month, and you can still get a room direct through the Holiday Inn website. Hurry up and make plans to join all your friends that have already signed up.

It's getting close. Any questions you're still unsure about? Drop a message here, or email the team at staff@ furthersouth.uk

Just over two weeks to go, last minute work is underway, but we still have space for:

New Dealers' Den applications

More DJ sets

As always for a furry convention, we're running a little charity fundraiser to help support local causes, remember to bring some loose change for the collection pots, and be ready to bid on the auction.

It's come a little later than I was hoping, but we've surpassed last year's attendance, and that not counting a pawful of registrations still to be paid (if that's you, remember to get back on the website and pay before the end of the month)

Do you make fursuits or art or animations or games or anything else exciting in the community and want a sneaky way of advertising it to all our attendees? Why not volunteer to talk at a short panel on the subject, or run a group activity at one.

Who are we going to see along at the convention next month?

Games nights are going ahead again, and even bigger. Not just board games, we're also opening spaces for TTRPG hosts, so if you want to run a D&D or introduce people to an exciting other game, let us know and we'll get you set up

Why not check out our Dealers' Den when you're here, plenty of stuff up for sale, and you get to help local furry people pay their rent again this month.

Or sign up yourself at forms.gle/8D8Kyjg1yZzbmhfM9

We still have opportunities for people to add their events to our schedule. Want to give a talk on a subject you're excited about, or teach a few of our guests a useful (or useless) skill?

Missed out on getting a room at the hotel before last week's deadline? Don't worry, you can still book direct with Holiday Inn, or find space at the unofficial overflow Premier Inn just across the road.

Last year, we only held onto our record as largest furry event in the city for a few weeks. We still have a month more to sign up tickets and set a new record that's not going to be beaten so easily.

There's also all the fun of the pier, it's just five minutes away from the venue, so we can easily head down there for lunch or a round of mini golf and be back before the next event.

Just a quick reminder for anyone that just clicks Agree on Terms of Service without reading them - Further South continues to be an 18+ only event. If you arrive at the venue under that age, we will not be able to let you in.

Any more DJs fancy putting their names down for our lineup? With a whole extra day this year, we need plenty of people to fill the main dance floor with music. Put yourself down on https://forms.gle/UUSnYv6YJgn8P98dA or just get in touch with our A/V team

Final countdown time

If your residential reg isn't paid for by midnight tomorrow, next time you log into the site it'll drop you down to non-residential booking, but don't worry, there's still time.

Get in touch with staff if you need help.

As last year, we're running an arts and crafts space, come along to hang out, practise your drawing, clay sculpting, painting, origami and more. Bring your own stuff or just use ours, and show off the results to everyone.

Don't forget, there's also ample space right outside where we can run activities and games and just hang out in the park, if the weather is with us again this year.

Want to perform on the main stage? We can accommodate for that, got plenty of spaces to fill out, and a small, friendly audience gathering so even if you're a bit nervous, this is a good place to start

Don't forget to sort your room share arrangements for the convention. Ask around, see if your friends are interested in coming too?
If not, we'll have to assign people at random, and that includes anyone that's listed a room share partner who hasn't actually booked.
