Hello Flufftails!

We hope all of you enjoyed the beginning of the New Year. We are happy to inform you of the registration details for Wild North this year!

Residential registration opens for last year's attendees at 7 p.m. on Friday, 31 January, 2025, and for everyone else at 7 p.m. on Friday, 7 February 2025.

For all registrations up to 3 March, you have until Monday, 31 March to pay. Registering from 4 March onwards means you will have 28 days to pay.

Rooms and Prices
Our new venue represents a clear upgrade in quality, and our prices have had to change accordingly.

We have done our best to keep prices as affordable as possible and in line with other UK furry conventions while aiming for the best Wild North experience.

Courtyard Classic Room: £310
Courtyard Superior Room: £365
Castle Classic Room: £365

These prices are per person and they include your attendance fee. Breakfast is included in the price (see Meals section).

Most rooms are doubles. We have a limited number of twin rooms in our room block – please contact us when reg opens to request one.

There are two accessible bedrooms with walk-in showers. If you would like an accessible room, please contact us.

As a reminder, the event runs from Friday 26 September to Monday 29 September 2025. If you would like to arrive a day early (on Thursday 25 September), the additional costs per person are:

Courtyard Classic Room: £70
Courtyard Superior Room: £88
Castle Classic Room: £88

Attending-only registration
This will open alongside residential registration and is subject to availability. The price is £100.

Day tickets will be subject to availability. We will give more information about them in due course.

T-shirts
Souvenir T-shirts are available to pre-order for £15.

Supporters
As we are a small event, we appreciate any and all support our attendees can give. This helps us make it the best event we can, especially with an adventure in a new venue.

If you do wish to support us to certain amounts, you will earn some goodies as a token of our appreciation:

£25 or more: mention in conbook and drinking vessel
£50 or more: the same, plus extra goodies

Meals
Breakfast is included for residential guests.

We are also inviting people to apply for our meal package, which includes:
- A lunch buffet on Saturday and Sunday
- The Badger’s Banquet: a 3-course meal (starter, main, dessert), on either Saturday or Sunday evening, in the surrounds of the Baron’s Hall.

These will only take place if we have enough sign-ups. We need 50 for the lunch buffet and 80 for the banquet.

When you register, you can state your interest in this option. To be clear, you will not need to pay when you register. Payments will only be requested if we reach the numbers. The price is £55.

We are really excited about these plans, so we hope you can join us!

Evening Flufftails!

2025 Registration - Starting soon!

Registration for Wild North 2025 will be opening very soon. Here’s how it will work:

* Everyone who attended Wild North 2024 will receive an email at around 7 pm on Friday, 31st January, with a link to the early registration page.
* For everyone else, registration will open at 7 pm on Friday, 7th February.

Please see our previous announcement for room options, prices, Supporter information, and meal options.

And remember, if you register before or on 3rd March, you have until 31st March to pay. From 4th March onwards, you will have 28 days from the day you register.

Room Allocation
The room allocation process is as follows:
* All preferences will be recorded on the reg system.
* Choose your preferred room category (Courtyard Classic, Courtyard Superior, Castle Classic, etc.) and bed arrangements (double, twin, single).
* When you register, you will see a space to state the name of a preferred roommate. There won’t be any share codes or badge numbers to swap: a name will do. You can leave the space blank if you don’t have a roommate.

After 48 hours, reg will be paused, and any oversubscribed room types will be randomly assigned. To be considered for a double or twin room, you will need to state a room partner. Those who miss out will be offered an alternative with the same bed arrangement, if such rooms are still available. For example: miss out on a Courtyard Classic twin, be offered a Courtyard Superior twin. You then have the option to take the offer, or to make other arrangements, which may include going non-residential.

Trading Post
Applications will open on Friday 7th February. Please see this web page for more information: https://www.wildnorth.uk/trading-post
