Events and Games

This will be updated periodically, so keep checking!

Major Competitions

  •   The FurJAM Art Competition
    Location: All venues
    Time: Starts Friday, judged Saturday

    The art competition is a longstanding tradition of FurJAM, and is open to beginners and veteran artists alike. On FurJAM Friday Night three words will be announced and released on our social media outlets (like Twitter!).

    You will have 24 hours to come up with a piece of furry art (PG-13 of course) that reflects the three words you are given. The art is to be in traditional format as we can't show digital art at the raffle easily.

    Judging will be made on what piece best integrates all three words according to our panel of judges and the winner will receive a prize!

    Submissions will close at 7pm Saturday evening.

Friday Events

  •   Chills and Drinks
    Location: Upstairs at Club Parramatta
    Time: 6:00pm, Friday Night

    We won't have anything on during Friday night, so let's take it easy and have a nice chat instead.

Saturday Events

  •   The Clap and Catch Game
    Location: Parramatta Park
    Time: 1:00pm

    A simple and effective park game for 16 attendees. Standing in a circle around one of our trusty volunteers, a ball will be randomly thrown to a competitor. Said competitor must clap their hands and attempt to catch the ball. If you fail, fear not! You still have a chance, although a second failure will put you out of the game. Last one standing wins the game.

    (In the interest of fairness, partial fursuiters get three chances and full fursuiters get four, while non suiters may only use one hand to attempt to catch the ball on their second attempt)

    Don’t worry, the rules will be explained before the game!

  •   The FurJAM Three Legged Race
    Location: Parramatta Park
    Time: 1:00pm

    8 teams for two races consisting of either one full fursuiter and one non suiter, or two partial fursuiters. Line up for an amazing race to see who is the fastest (and most coordinated) team. Will you prevail, or will you fall?

  •   The FurJAM Fursuit Photoshoot
    Location: Parramatta Park
    Time: 3:00pm

    As per tradition we like to get all willing fursuiters to line up and gather for a big group photo, as well as a few individual shots throughout the day. So when the time comes join the group and make this the most impressive photo yet!

  •   Card Game Competition
    Location: Art & Games area, Club Parramatta
    Time: 8:00pm to finish

    Bit of a card shark? Come and play a few games of cards with some fuzzies on Saturday night! We'll have Uno, Poker or any other game you can play with a standard 52 deck and anyone interested can vote on what to play!
