2022 and 2023[edit]
Reffurence was launched in July of 2022, with the enrollment in the Dutch Chamber of Commerce. [1] [2] During the Christmas Holidays of 2022, the dates of the convention in 2023 were announced, Aug 31 - Sep 3, 2023. [3] On 7th of January it was made public that Reffurence would take place in the City of Antwerp. [4] The first edition has the "Rumble in the Jungle" theme, and is mainly focused on the rainforest jungles.
However, due to the change in dates of the Eurofurence[5], which caused a conflict with the two conventions. Reffurence decided to change the dates to 3 to 6 August 2023.
Staff[edit]
