About Furnal Equinox

Furnal Equinox (FE) is an annual regional furry convention held in Toronto, Ontario, and is Canada's largest furry convention by attendance. Announced in 2009, it held its first edition in March 2010 at the Doubletree by Hilton Toronto Airport, the first large hotel-based furry event in the Toronto area. The convention is operated by Anthropomorphic Events of Ontario, a non-profit corporation incorporated in June 2009 with Pakesh De, Blindsight, Crassadon, Dan Skunk and Scani as its initial directors; Pakesh De served as the first chair, later joined by Blindsight as co-chair. Founding member ShiroTora came up with the name, a play on the convention's March dates near the vernal equinox. FE traditionally invites Guests of Honour from both Canada and abroad, and raises money each year for a charity through its charity auction. After moving from the Doubletree to the Sheraton Toronto Airport and then the Westin Harbour Castle (2017–2026), the convention is moving to the Sheraton Centre Toronto and to February dates starting in 2027.
