This document outlines the rules of the programmes, events and meetings organised by FurFun and its organising team, as well as the basic standards of conduct to be observed from online registration to the end of the event. Each person attending the convention is responsible for themselves and is expected to abide by the rules and guidelines of the event.
The aim of the regulations are to cover all possible scenarios and provide clear, easy-to-understand answers to every conceivable situation. Therefore, unlike conventional regulations, we endeavour to use simple, direct and understandable wording. It is possible that we may describe situations or scenarios that seem scary at first glance, but this ensures that they do not actually happen.
We reserve the right to interpret and modify the policy. We strive to notify you of any changes on the website, for example by indicating the date of the modification, or in the text of the news on the home page.
This directive serves as the foundation of our rules and regulations and takes precedence over all established rules. We will not tolerate behaviour that disturbs the peace of others, interferes with the smooth running of events, significantly impairs the visitor experience or adversely affects the reputation of the event, including its venues, partners or the public.
In the event of a breach of the primary directive, we reserve the right to revoke registration and, in more serious cases, even refuse future registration, including other events and conventions organized by out team.
The event is specifically intended for adults, therefore only persons over the age of 18 may participate.
In order to preserve the unique atmosphere of the club, we have introduced a dress code. Compliance with the dress code is mandatory throughout the event. If someone does not meet the requirements, they will unfortunately not be allowed to attend the event and will have to leave the venue. In such cases, there will be no refund or compensation. It is therefore important that you consider more than just the minimum requirements when planning your outfit. You can find more information in the Club Furfun Dress Code Guide!
It is important to note that the dress code only applies to Club Furfun events. Due to the nature of the sauna, there is no dress code.
We are doing everything we can to create a safe environment for all attendees. However, we also need your help. Please ensure that you do not cause any damage to other people, the venue or property of the event. Use the equipment, furniture and facilities provided appropriately; for example, do not dismantle the glow sticks or spill their contents.
It is important that you behave responsibly and in moderation when consuming alcohol. If your behaviour becomes inappropriate due to alcohol consumption or if we have the impression that your condition poses a danger to you or others, we reserve the right to remove you from the event. In this case, you will not be allowed to return for the remaining days.
For the sake of your health, we ask you not to consume strong alcoholic drinks before and during the fursuiting. You are an adult and nobody will stop you, but it is important to know that alcohol significantly increases the risk of feeling unwell in this context.
In order to comply with the rules and regulations for handling data, we do not request or store any health-related data. If you are on long-term medication, it is your responsibility to ensure that this information is available when needed.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that Hungary's drug policy is stricter than that of neighbouring countries. Apart from alcohol, there are virtually no decriminalised psychoactive substances, so even the possession and consumption of small amounts of marijuana is punishable by law. It is therefore strictly forbidden to bring illegal drugs or psychoactive substances onto the event site!
We are many, diverse and form a community in which everyone has different boundaries, values or worldviews. It is important that we treat each other with respect, accept the choices of others and do not impose our own views on others
Be aware that what seems natural to you may not be so to others. Always communicate clearly with others, especially if something upsets or unsettles you. If someone asks you to leave them alone, accept and respect their decision.
If a problem arises and you feel that your signals are not getting through, do not let the situation escalate. Instead, contact the ConOps or the organisers, who will intervene if necessary. It is important to realise that we cannot persuade or force others to change their minds. Intervention is only justified if the behaviour can be classified as harassment.
Harassment occurs when someone creates a persistently intimidating, humiliating, embarrassing or offensive environment for others, regularly or persistently disturbs others and sometimes arbitrarily intrudes into their private lives. Such situations also include making unwanted physical contact, including sexual, which may involve the authorities.
It is strictly forbidden to bring devices that can record images or sounds into the venue. Cell phones and other devices that can record images and/or sounds must be turned off and kept in the cloakroom, e.g. in a bag or zippered pocket, or in a locker. Although there will always be staff on site, we cannot take responsibility for items left in the cloakroom or in lockers locked with a key, so please only bring what you need.
It is important to emphasize that if there is the slightest suspicion that you have recorded footage, you must leave the venue immediately and will be banned from attending future Furfun events as well as all other non-adult events.
As described in the "Health and Safety" section, we ask that you use the furniture and items on display for their intended purpose. We will endeavour to support you with the signs on site and make you aware of important rules and information.
If a sign on site conflicts with any of the previously described sections of the regulations, the sign on site will always take precedence.
This is an exclusive area for fursuiters to relax and change without breaking the magic of fursuiting. If you are a fursuiter, don't forget to register as such, as registration and a fursuiter wristband are required to enter the lounge.
Each fursuiter may bring a handler, but the handler may only enter "hand-in-hand" with the fursuiter. This means that if you are not a registered fursuiter, you cannot enter the lounge area alone.
Food and drink are strictly forbidden in the Fursuit Lounge! Please only consume the refreshments provided in the designated area and do not take anything near the fursuits. As the main purpose of the room is dressing, photography or other recording is strictly prohibited.
To preserve the integrity of the artworks, we ask you not to touch the exhibited pieces and creations and not to bring any food or drink into the art exhibition area. Please respect the artists' copyrights and refrain from taking photographs in the art exhibition area.
Although we generally welcome visitors in fursuits, we ask that you do not enter the Art Show area if you wear one. This is important not only because it is difficult to view the exhibition while fursuiting, but also because there is a high risk that you may accidentally damage one of the artworks on display.
If you are taking part in a stage event, you can bring your fursuit to the changing room 45 minutes before the start of the programme and keep it there until it can be packed up or taken to the Fursuit Lounge at the end of the programme.
If this time exceeds 30 minutes, please make sure that you do not disturb or hinder the next programme's participants. If you are not taking part in a stage programme or have no business in the backstage area, you are not permitted to enter.
It's important to note that it's strictly forbidden to enter restricted areas and other operational areas without authorisation. Although we endeavour to clearly mark these areas, it's important to always be careful. If a room or area resembles an office, warehouse, technical trench or platform, or is completely empty, you're certainly not authorised to enter.
Detailed information on the layout and location of areas designated for visitors can be found on the map available at the self-service kiosk, which indicates the rooms in which scheduled programmes take place.
