Absolutely! Just log in to your profile at MyFWA.com and upgrade your membership, or you can upgrade at the door!

Sorry, but memberships to Furry Weekend Atlanta are non-transferrable. You are entitled to a full refund before the end of March in the convention year. After that date, we will be unable to issue any refunds.

See above. Pretty much anything that ends in “can you just let me in,” the answer is more than likely no.

Sorry, no. We hear this one every year, and it won’t work. Do not come to Furry Weekend Atlanta unless you are prepared to show valid identification and, if under 18, a signed and notarized parental permission form.

Search online under Notary Public. Many law offices also have a notary public on staff, and many FedEx Office locations around the country can also provide notary services. You can also check your local city hall or courthouse. If you are in a different country, you may check under Commissioner for Oaths. As a last resort, US Consular Services in many nations can provide notary service.

Yes. Forms are valid for the convention year in which they are signed.

Yes. We will have permission forms available at registration, and your parent may sign the form in witness of Furry Weekend Atlanta at registration in lieu of having the form notarized in advance.

No. Every attendee is required to present identification that verifies age, and each attendee under the age of 18 as of the first day of the convention must have a signed permission form. Those who cannot do this will be turned away. Why not invite your parents to come with you? We have many families that attend the convention each year and have a great time together. This may be a good chance to introduce your parents to the fandom!

Yes. Furry Weekend Atlanta operates under the laws of the United States of America, the State of Georgia, and the City of Atlanta. Regardless of what legal age is considered in your home country, we are bound to follow our laws.

All persons under 18 at Furry Weekend Atlanta must have parental permission on file with us. Furry Weekend Atlanta has a special International Minor Permission Form
(available in DOC and PDF). This form still must be notarized by the equivalent of a public notary in your country, or signed by your parent or guardian at Registration once you arrive.

Only if your brother/sister/uncle/friend is your legal guardian.

Your permission form must be signed by your parents or your legal guardian. Furry Weekend Atlanta reserves the right to (and often does) contact the person listed on your permission form and verify the information provided, so please don’t try to pull anything funny on us.
