Cosplay FAQ

What is the Masquerade?

The cosplay Masquerade is an activity that happens on in the main Q&A hall on the last day of the event. Cosplayers who have signed up for the competition get up in the spotlight to perform on stage showcasing their hard work for spectators.

There is a panel of judges that rate the contestants on various criteria and award prizes to the winners of each category. Prizes include VIP passes for the next event, trophies and other goodies.

Are there any restrictions for cosplay?

In the interest of health and safety we have policies in place for what can be brought in to the event. We're thrilled you are interested in cosplay at Wales Comic Con but please make sure you thoroughly read our cosplay rules.
