Cosplay Costume Contest

Cosplay Costume Contest (All Virtual)

Call for Unique Cosplay Costumes

Submit your entries online, now through May 8th

Buff up those sewing machines, and heat up those hot glue guns - get creative at home. Design a unique cosplay costume, and be in to win prizes.

The Cosplay Costume Contest is an online contest where you can create your own unique cosplay costume. Whether you have been creating costumes for years, or this is something you are interested in beginning now, there is something for everyone. There are seven categories you can submit your costume in, and the final designs are judged to win 1st Prize, Runner-Up and an online crowd sourced People's Choice Award. Ages 13+ to enter.

Categories include: TV/Film, Comics/Video Games, Art History, Musician, Make-Up Design, Unconventional, and Recycled Material.

This needs to be a new costume that hasn't been submitted in any events previously.

Our judges will rate/review the submissions over the weekend of May 9-10. We need YOUR vote for the People's Choice Awards - voting will open online from 8am Saturday, May 9th, to 3pm, Sunday, May 10th. 

We will announce the winners via a live stream Sunday, May 10th, at 5pm PST across multiple platforms (winners will be posted afterwards).

Register online by Friday May 8th at 10pm PST, 2020. FREE to register.
