What if I’m uncomfortable or harassed?
We are committed to creating an atmosphere where attendees can feel safe, & inclusive. If you feel harassed or see harassment, please report it to a member of our security team. Harassment of any kind is unwelcome and will be dealt with swiftly.
What’s the Difference between the cosplay contest & the cosplay pageant?
It’s not a convention without a cosplay contest! We have a category for all cosplayers to win great prizes and show off their costumes. The contest is the category to show off your carefully curated costumes to the judges and the audience. If you have skills in crafting cosplay, this is the place for you to enter! The cosplay pageant on the other hand isn’t based on craftsmanship, but based on audience/judge popularity and how well you can strut your stuff. If you can’t sew, but you can wear the hell out of a cosplay, this category is for you!
