Dance Battle

Furry Migration wants to bring the excitement and fun to the dance floor of Minnesota very own Furry Migration. Join us at main stage to see the exciting battle commence.

This year’s Dance Battle, will be 1 bracket of 32 dancers both in and out of suit.

Both fursuiters and non fursuiters will be competing for total domination of the dance floor! Each competitor will give it their all twice for 30 seconds each with random music that is spun by our house DJ. The challenge is to take whatever music is playing and do your best to improvise a well-suited dance. The music could go from hard core, EDM, to 80s pop, to smooth jazz, you never know what will be until the music starts! We will have a knockout bracket to decide our 3rd place winner and our final showdown to crown the winner of this year’s Furry Migration 2024 Lost In Dance Battle!
