FETCHNW PRESENTS FROSTBITE WEEKEND 2025

We are thrilled to announce our dates for this year’s Frostbite Weekend! Last year was so popular, we’re doing it again, and it’s going to be even bigger!

 

Clear your calendars and make your travel plans for December 11th – 14th. We’re going to have events all weekend long with orgs and venues and partners such as

 

We’ll have more details about these events (and possibly more) in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.

 

For now, mark your calendars, and get ready to join Daddy Croc for a jam-packed weekend full of everything furry and puppy that Seattle has to offer.

 

The second year of this city wide not-a-convention is bound to be bigger than the last.

Details on Vortex, FetchNW’s event for Frostbite Weekend, can be found at https://fetchnw.com/vortex.

VORTEX at The Crocodile is a ticketed event. Other FROSTBITE WEEKEND events do not require tickets. Ticketing will be done on Crocodile’s ticketing site and platform. We will get all our ticket links updated and live once that’s setup.

 

That being said, if you want to feel like VIP all weekend long, check out the “Platinum Paw” ticket type once tickets go on sale. After its success last year, we’re offering them again. This ticket will get you all the benefits of the Golden Paw you’re used to for Vortex at the Crocodile, plus an invite to an exclusive pre-show party at The Society (an attached cocktail bar) with early entry to the venue, a special gift, a free drink at some of the partner venues, and more. Thank you to everyone who purchases these Golden Paw and Platinum Paw tickets. You’re helping us keep our GA ticket prices low.

SEA-PAH Holiday Mosh
Dec 13th @ 2pm at The Cuff

 

It’s the holiday mosh! There will be sweets for folks to enjoy, and the return of the white elephant! White elephant price limit is set for $25. SEA-PAH will have sponsored gifts for the white elephant, so those who already finished their holiday shopping can still join in on the fun. These gifts are first come, first serve.

 

Regardless of whether or not you’ve been to a mosh before, or if you are a handler, pup, or just curious – you are welcome!

 

The mosh is just a stone’s throw away from The Crocodile, so is a great way to start out your afternoon before hitting up VORTEX that night.
