Did you know you can add a fursona picture onto your conbadge? Go to your registration page and click the Twizell icon next to your name.

While you're on your registration, please take a moment to check that your details are current. This includes your approximate arrival and departure times if you know them. This will help us plan for travel and transport.

These can be found by going to Registration Info, then Gimmicks.

If you're unsure of your arrival/departure times, don't worry. You will have until early September to update your details.

Evening Flufftails, Twizell here, giving you a snippet of what is in store for the Twizell Maze!

First, we will be bringing back the night of Fur'e'oke! Be sure to get your vocal cords ready to sing some tunes!

We have provided a song sheet if you want to see what songs will be available: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10Jk5tNTv3E_Xln7Al6vaiQyvEjcdk4Ks/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=100887034485147574102&rtpof=true&sd=true

Do you need help finding a song you'd like to sing on the night? Do not fret! You can contact @Greskilvulf, give him the song/artist, and he can do his best to find what you're looking for and add it to the list in time for Wild North!

The Wild North Kubb Tournament is back once again!

For those unfamiliar with Kubb, it’s an old Viking lawn game of knocking down your opponent's towers before finishing the king. (Here's a link with a quick rule overview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtqVqrcVgVY )

This is a team event, and we're asking interested people to sign up ahead of the con.

We need at least four teams of three players, and yes, fursuiters can play and are actively encouraged! (Though we do have a limit of one suiter per team.)

So gather your raiding party, pillage your enemies' towers and topple the king!

You can email us at events@wildnorth.uk or send a message to @WildNorthComms with team sign-ups, and we'll get you on the roster. We look forward to some exciting team names!

Let’s see your battle skills!

We currently have a place available. If you know someone who’s missed out so far, please let them know!

Less than a week until registration closes! The closing date is Saturday 26 August 2023

We want to inform you that three places are currently available for Wild North!

Hello everyone! We thank all who attended Wild North 2023: The Twizell Maze. It has been great to see you all posting photos and writing about what fun you’ve had. The wind and rain didn’t prevent any of you from enjoying what was on offer.

Onto the announcements: The Little Paws Ferret Rescue have let us know how much they enjoyed their time at Featherstone Castle (along with their fuzzy friends!) and how much we have raised. The charity total for this year was £729.54! No doubt they will be delighted by your support and generosity.

As you may know, the team here is always open to feedback and suggestions to improve next year’s Wild North. Therefore, if you have any ideas, thoughts, or general comments (anonymous if you wish), we have a feedback form for you all to fill in. Depending on the responses we receive, a follow-up newsletter will be published on all channels: https://forms.gle/NHHzi11AtMVunrLq7

Other than that, Wild North will return on the 27th to 30th September 2024. Registration will open in the new year (be on the look out for future announcements), but you can save your details for next year on the registration site right now: https://regsys.myfurry.name/NEU/User/?id=5

We look forward to seeing you as Twizell travels through the enchanted forest!
