What is LIFC?
Little Island Furcon, LIFC for short, is Singapore’s very own furry convention (or “furcon”) where we celebrate what being a furry is about! Furries, both local and overseas, come to this annual convention for a time of fun activities, meeting fursuiters, and hanging out with furry friends.
LIFC was born out of a passion for the furry community in Singapore. With over five years of experience hosting community events, Scalarius recognised that the time had come for a furry convention. Gathering a dedicated team, plans for LIFC were set in motion in 2018, leading to the first LIFC in 2019.
However, 2020 posed an unforeseen challenge as the pandemic disrupted plans for LIFC that year. In response, 2021 saw the emergence of LIFC Online, or LIFCO for short. LIFCO is an online convention organised by Decro, then co-chairperson. Over the course of three LIFCO events, the furry community continued to thrive, eagerly anticipating the return of in-person conventions.
2023 marked the comeback of LIFC, and Scalarius, having paved the way, graciously passed the torch to Decro as chairperson. Today, LIFC boasts a unique dual-convention setup: LIFCO, our online gathering at the start of the year, and LIFC, our cherished in-person event in the middle of the year. This history reflects our commitment to fostering furry connections both in-person and online.
