So we contact you directly during the convention.

After putting in hours of hard work we would like to credit you if we share your designs on our social media channels or website in the future.

Please provide a reference photo for your design so we can see where your inspiration has come from. Each contestant will be judged on how accurate they get they’re finished costume to the the reference photo.

We want to know all about the inspiration behind your design? How many hours did it take? Where did you get your inspiration from? Are there any clever or interesting special features?

The Masquerade Parade will involve crossing the Main Stage to display and show off your amazing designs. Please let us know if you have any access requirements.

Cosplay Rules

1. Cosplay contestants must have some craftsmanship in the overall process of their costume design. Help can be provided from a close friend or family member. Any commissioned work should make up a small portion of the costume.

2. For your entry to be valid all costumes MUST be inspired and based on a character from a musical. If your costume is especially large or you need help to be able to move you must state this when submitting your form. Unfortunately no friends or family will be able to join you on stage or back stage. 

3. If you have any elaborate or technical features i.e. lights or inflating aspect to your costume design, the power for this must be part of your costume and included within the design.

4. Group entry is permitted. If you and a group of your fellow musical loving friends wish to enter as a group please only submit ONE entry application. Please do not submit multiple entries as these will not be valid.
