At Vancoufur, we want to provide a safe and comfortable environment for all our attendees. We understand that there are many disabilities that may affect an attendee’s experience and we have many accomodations in place to help make the convention experience better for those with accessbility needs.
Vancoufur is proud to honor Access 2 cards during registration, as well as the welcoming of service dogs in our convention space. Main events will also have a reserved section at the front open to those with mobility aids.
At con, for those who require accomdations, particularly in terms of mobility, we have an Accessibility Sticker.
These stickers will grant an attendee:
- Seating at the front of the line for priority loading into to main events (located in the Fraser Room and Ballroom).This is to allow time for those who need it to find the best seat for their needs, as well as set up of mobility aids.
- Priority entry for all non-main events and panel rooms. This allows sticker holders first entry into any panel rooms, allowing attendees to find the best seat for their needs.
- If, when requested, a room is still being flipped and/or there are no seats available inside yet, any accessibility sticker holder can request a chair to use until the event has opened. When available, priority will still apply.
- Elevator priority access for all accessibility sticker holders. This allows those who need it first access to elevators.
Any person who believes that they require these accommodations will have access to this sticker, with minimal questions asked. Proof of disability will not need to be provided. To obtain a sticker, any attendee requiring accomodations are welcome to inquire at the accessibility table.
Other accomodations we have planned for 2025:
- Quiet room for people with sensory disorders such as those with autism who may need a quiet space to decompress if things become overwhelming. To access this, please approach the accessiblity table or any staff member with a radio.
- No Flash/fursuit friendly/all ages dance scheduled before 10pm on select days for people who cannot handle strobe lights.
- If you require a hotel room in the main hotel due to mobility or disability issues, please reach out to [email protected] as soon as possible. After hotel opening, our ability to assist is limited.
If you require assistance with accomodations (such as wheelchair or other equipment rental), please reach out to the accessiblity coordinators at [email protected].
If you require different or additional support within convention space or have any questions about our accessibility measures, please reach out to [email protected] and let us know what we can do to help.
