ConFuzzled 2014 will be the seventh iteration of the ConFuzzled convention in the United Kingdom. It is scheduled to be held over May 23-27, 2014.[1] The theme - "The World of Tomorrow" - was announced on the ConFuzzled website (and other social media) on August 20, 2013.

Previously held at the four-star Hinckley Island hotel in Hinckley, Leicestershire, in 2014 ConFuzzled will be held at the Birmingham Hilton Metropole in Birmingham.[1]

The first Guest of Honour was announced on December 3, 2013, as Rick Griffin, illustrator and author of webcomic Housepets!.[2] The second Guest of Honour was announced on February 19, 2014, as Alexis Rudd, fursuit-maker and puppeteer.[3]

Registration

Full pricing details were revealed on 27th September 2013.[4] Registration options for 2014 are the same as in previous years, with attending only and residential tickets, both of which can be upgraded with "plus" and "sponsor" options for an extra £15 or £50 respectively.

The basic "attending only" ticket remains at £70. The basic residential ticket costs between £250 and £540 per person (based on two people sharing a room) depending on the room type (which varies from a standard double/twin up to a King suite), and includes breakfast and access to the hotel gym and pool.

Registrations made and paid for before 7th January 2014 received a £10 discount.

Registration officially opened at 2030GMT on 28th October 2013,[5] with a new system in place for processing card payments.[6] Residential registration closed at 2200BST on 21st April 2014, at which time there were 1000 registered and paid attendees.

Registration closed fully at 2200BST on May 16, 2014, and the final attendee statistics showed a total of 1079 attendees had registered from 29 different countries - a 23% increase on the previous year.[7]
