It's indeed the best European convention you can choose right now :3 EF would be second choice ^^° But due to NFCs size it's just so damn difficult to get a hotel nowadays 😅 Thanks for putting me in the video too! 😇
easy get an airbnb many locals put their homes up for it during the event to cash in! prices are very reasonable! we did it our accomidation is just over the road
@@nessunday That's true :3 But some of the fursuiters want to stay as close to the main event halls as possible, due to personal reasons or disablities or whatever. So there are technically three hotels including the "main", which are good for that.
I feel you definitely managed to capture the atmosphere of NFC, even in such a short video! Amazingly well done! NFC is my favourite con of all. I just love the vibe and the atmosphere. And I am so hyped for NFC 2025 already! Thanks for this great video!
it is an amazing con, we had a blast this year alwas something to do (EF is good too but very different feel) would defo recommend and they are expanding valhalla for more events. what the video doesn't mention is how easy it is to get to the con simply fly into copanagen (denmark) and get the train at the airport which takes you right out to wheere the con hotel is. please note sweden has very strict rules when it comes to filming and photography. more importantly do not leave the hotel space if drunk unaccompanied as the police (who are sat outside the main door) will detain you and place you in the drunk tank for the night
I am quite disappointed I missed this because I live in Sweden 🇸🇪 and it’s not every day you see somebody in a fursuit can be because it’s not normal here and how expensive they are

There was this bug where before the video released, when I would review the video after uploading, it only presented it in the alternative languages, no option for original audio until it was either done, or after release 😂 I was so confused
Definitely more, $1000 for flights (this varies from where you're coming from), and then there's the hotel and reg, food and other activities was probably another $1000
I think the reason why American cons are starting to suck is inherent to the American culture. I'm not saying it is bad or good, but it is incompatible if youre looking for something open, friendly, clean, and orderly (which you NEED to have for a convention). What the US has is more like a party, or like an adult version of a Chuck E Cheese, where everyone is allowed to be an obnoxious kid, but God forbid if you call someone out on being obnoxious. You'll be the one in trouble. I've thought about this for a long time about why EU cons are generally better than US cons. I had many little bits of "evidence" but they werent the core reason. The core reason, I believe, is indeed in the US culture. EU cons, and the activities, games, panels within all have hosts who know what they are doing, what they want to achieve, and have goals. Funny thing is, when you set yourself a goal, and you see yourself making progress towards it/achieving it, you become happy. In the US having a goal is not allowed. Supposedly it stifles imagination. Having a goal means having a certain point, while ignoring/cutting out all the distractions/perspectives. Americans find that impossible because it goes against their spirit of radical freedom. I believe it is in most part due to a culture that embraces the idea "let me do whatever I want". When everything is allowed, no common goal can be agreed upon. No goal. No measuring if youre "getting there". And no happiness. Let me do whatever I want. I will eat and drink garbage, and feel too bad to dance. Let me do whatever I want. Let me play music that is hard to dance to since nobody dances anyway. Let me do whatever I want. There is nothing really fun to do other than bug people and being an obnoxious person. Let me do whatever I want. I'm going to leave the door open so anyone can bang me, because it is either this or getting bugged by people. Let me do whatever I want. I don't feel fulfilled in this fandom, so I am going to go stir up drama online until people hate this fandom enough to change it for the better. It doesn't have to start out with the food. But it is one of the biggest reasons. The hosts don't care about catering as much. Energy drinks, salty/fatty foods are easily accessible and convenient. Highly processed and sugary foods too. Those can ruin your mood and energy levels which tip over into behavior issues. The real issue is the radical "dont judge" culture US has, promotes, and tries to safeguard. Sometimes you need to judge. You need to say "we are building crap. we have to take these blocks out and start over". And some people are going to be pissed because they identify themselves with those blocks and think you are not being inclusive.
Imo nfc is a little overhyped, but mainly due to its location, you are not allowed to drink outsite by law that is, you have to sell parts of your liver in order to afford a drink at the bar, the deals den was super small, Its hard to find a place to sit and getting a main room is almost imposible. Having even more attendees next year, a new location is a must for 2026! Other than that, they did A LOT right!
I think the location for NFC is perfect. It continues to stay cozy, despite the number of attendees, which is quite a feat. The closeness to all the great restaurants in central Malmö, all the great photo locations near the venue, the closeness to the train and the airport. If you are bothered by the Swedish drinking laws and the price of alcohol in Sweden, you would have to attend a con outside of Sweden. There honestly aren't any better locations in the south of Sweden. Some people want to move it to Gothia Towers in Gothenburg, but there is no international airport nearby there, traveling to the location from all around the world would be much less smooth, and IMO, the area around that venue is nowhere near as nice as the area around Clarion in Malmö.
@ I agree with you that there might not be a better Location in southern Sweden or maybe even in Sweden in General, but that does not change the fact that they need to fit almost 2k more people than last year, 3700 was already too much for the conspace, compairing it to EF cause its the only other big con Ive been to.I really Hope nfc proves me wrong but I feel like it will be a huge Problem, which might only be Solved by moving or limiting the amound of atendees. The Idea of having a second conspace with valhalla is good for the Moment but cant be a Long time Solution. About the drinking laws, it really is just a personal thing that I feel like is worth mentioning cause it can be very annoying at times
Without knowing for certain, it is likely they are going to run the open house the same as they have done the previous years, which means it will be during Friday morning and afternoon. You can still hang around outside in the evening, after the open house ends. I definitely recommend coming for the experience and the atmosphere.
I would be way too scared there are too many guys and too little girls . same with bronycons. without a full body-fursuit where nonoe can see your gender i would be way feeling uncomfy there
I'm a furry from Sweden and it's so nice to see so many people enjoy the con we have here :3
I'm a bit anxious, but I'm really looking forward to trying NFC for the first time in 2025!
SWEDEN❤❤❤❤❤❤

The way the American community is heading scares me. I *really* hope that won't spill over.

Thinking abt going there 2025, just waiting for them to release info on open house, (im still to poor to be there full time lol)
Without knowing for certain, it is likely they are going to run the open house the same as they have done the previous years, which means it will be during Friday morning and afternoon. You can still hang around outside in the evening, after the open house ends. I definitely recommend coming for the experience and the atmosphere.
@@Silkyfur Kinda suspected it was gonna be that day, but im still gonna wait till they release info, so i dont book and they change the day
Ha!
owo
its simple it's less so its hard-worked,if you get a con every weekend why bother?
Come and enjoy... just don't bring *your* con customs please or we will have to look for alternatives soon.
I would be way too scared there are too many guys and too little girls . same with bronycons. without a full body-fursuit where nonoe can see your gender i would be way feeling uncomfy there
