"Cosplay" is the practice of dressing up as a character from a movie, book, or video game, especially one from the Japanese genres of manga and anime.
 

Interested in creating an original skit to participate in our Cosplay Competition known as the “Purr-Formance Compeition”? Learn all about the rules and how it works by visiting our Purr-Formance Competition page!
 

Would you like to have your costume evaluated by a panel of judges, but don't want to go on stage? Then learn more about our From Scratch Craftsmanship Contest!
 

Here at NekoCon, we believe there are many truly unique and amazing costumes wandering the halls that may never see the main stage or competition. Special recognition is given to costumes that catch our eye through the Hall Ribbon Costume Award!
 

If you have any questions regarding our Cosplay competitions please email cosplay@nekocon.com and we'll do our best to answer you! If you’re interested in becoming a judge or a guest, please fill out this form.
