Ragmo:
Hi there  :)

A couple of days ago, i just saw that there is THE european furry convention literaly 100meter away from my workpalce.

Even though its to late for me to even consider to go this year (getting a ticket on such short notice, and not having vacations);
But maybe next year, and so i was wondering:

I never visited a furry convention till now. Would it even be worth going alone?

My friends aren't realy interested about that - atleast not that i know of;
And going alone seems quite scary, despite that friendly community (i kind of have big problems to approach/getting approached by strangers).

Never the less, since the con is directly infront of my face, i DEFENTLY want to drop by after work to get some first impressions from outside of the convetion area  ;)

Zefiro:
You can get a ticket even at the door (though it's more expensive than pre-registering), and the program goes on into the night, with stage events and dances.
There's also lots of program on Saturday, including the art auction and the Pawpet Show.

I'd say, if you're Furry and live nearby, don't miss out, get yourself a ticket and just join the fun :)

*purrrr*

Drift:
Also, the main hall is accessible without a ticket - it is public space. It is much to see there already :).
You could come after work or on the weekend, go inside, have a look, and buy a ticket if you like what you see (or just hang out in the lobby - the ticket grants you acceess to panels, shows, dances etc. which Zefiro allready mentioned).

Oh, and yes: it is worth going even on your own!!! Usually you will not stay alone for long - there are that many nice and friendly people from all over the world socialising in that hotel that you will make friends soon :)

StormEngineer:
The public areas of the hotel are accessible without a ticket, so you can have an impression - and if you want to check one of the ticket-only events like presentations (panels) or the Art Show (art exhibition) you can buy a day-ticket and visit for just one day.

And obviously it is more fun if you come with friends but you can also make friends there - for example, if you go to panels, you will be among furs with a common interest. There are also just random socializing, mini-parties and so on.

And if you go alone for the first time, you may end up with friends to go with next year. ;)

Hai λ:
Get a day ticket, attend the PawPet Show! :)
