THESE ARE THE RULES AND GUIDELINES FOR THE COSPLAY CONTEST

Contestants will be given up to 3 minutes which they can use show off their costumes and perform a skit. Remember, this is the cosplay competition, so you will not be judged on your costume alone, but on the quality of your skit. After all cosplayers have performed, the judges will take a brief recess to decide on the winners and will then hand out awards for the best cosplays. For the cosplay competition there is only one costume allowed per person. Each entrant may enter as a single, in a group or both - However you may only enter in one group - so the max amount of times you can be on stage is twice. A group consists of at least 2 people and may have up to 10 members. Entry as a single means just that... 1 person.

AWARDS: Best in Show, Best Comedy - Single, Best Comedy - Group, Best Drama - Single, Best Drama - Group
