ConCarolinas is excited to offer two opportunities for our costumed attendees:
A “walk on” performance based showcase of cosplays. Recommended for store bought or “bounding/thrifted” costumes. Participants have a 1 min Catwalk opportunity on our Main Programming stage before final craftsmanship judging. Prizes for Best Showcase and Best Kids Cosplay (under 15 years) will be presented on stage during Main Programming.
