Visitors can watch the event, but you will need to buy at least a Saturday badge to participate and dress up.

The PrairieCon Cosplay is an all-ages event, so please exercise discretion in the costume you choose, how it’s constructed and how you act.

The cosplay contest and stage walk will take place in the middle of the venue.

When you buy your badge, you’ll also have to get a ticket for the Cosplay event (tickets are free – make sure you checkout).

Your badge is your entry into all of PrairieCon, not just the Cosplay Event, so feel free to sign up for other games to play!

Wow, what a great start!
