Costume Convention
What exactly is Costume-Con?
It's a 4 day long conference all about costuming and cosplay. It's about costumes from anime, comics, fantasy, sci-fi, fursuits, theatrical/TV/film, millinery, accessories, and more.
Costume-Con is an international traveling convention, as it moves to a new location every year, with a new hosting committee as well. So every year's experience is a little different, but it's always fun! It's also 4 full days, starting Friday morning and ending Monday afternoon. Plus optional pre- and post-con tours and activities.
