Yes! Simply stop by the Registration Desk with your government issued ID to pickup your badge.
You will need a non-expired government-issued I.D. that bears your name, your picture, and your date of birth.
Examples include: a valid driver’s license, a passport, or a state-issued ID card. In limited circumstances, a school ID or work photo ID will partially work, but it would need to be accompanied by a second official form of ID that lists your name and date of birth to properly validate your identity, such as a government issued birth certificate.
It is our policy to require that you present a form of valid photo I.D.
We are unable to admit anyone who is not able to present legal identification. If you cannot present a government issued I.D., you will still need a form of official I.D. that bears your picture (such as a school I.D. or work I.D.) and a second piece of identification that bears your name and date of birth (such as a birth certificate). If you are in doubt, please bring as many pieces of identification you are able to obtain. If you have further questions, we would be happy to answer them at reg@indyfurcon.com .

If you are not an adult (18 years of age) as of that time, you will be required to have a signed Parental Consent for Minor Attendee form and a Notary Form for Parental Consent for Minor Attendees form even if you will become an adult during the course of the convention. For 2026, this date would be September 4th.
If your 18th birthday occurs during the convention, you may return to registration on your birthday with proper identification and we will exchange you minor badge for an adult badge.
