Cosplay contests are an important part of the anime convention scene. HizashiCon’s Cosplay Contest is designed to celebrate creativity and passion in a fun, low-stress environment where everyone can shine. Whether you’re a seasoned cosplayer or a first-timer, our contest welcomes all skill levels and ages to showcase their favorite characters and inventive designs. With a supportive and enthusiastic audience, you’ll find the experience rewarding and enjoyable, regardless of your level of expertise. We offer prizes for various categories, ensuring that every participant has a chance to be recognized for their unique contributions. It’s not just about competition—it’s about having a great time and sharing your love for cosplay with others!
For children 15 and under, we offer a Junior’s Division. This division is specifically designed to celebrate young cosplayers, allowing them to showcase their talents alongside peers of similar ages, which helps foster a sense of belonging and achievement. By participating, children can develop public speaking skills, build self-esteem, and engage with their interests in a positive and encouraging setting. Moreover, it ensures that their efforts are recognized and appreciated in a way that respects their skill level and encourages continued enthusiasm for cosplay and creative expression.
For those that are interested in showing off their cosplay on the big stage without the competition environment, we offer a Cosplay Masquerade. Walk across the stage with your favorite hand-made or store-bought cosplay and feel the hype of the audience. Click the application button below to sign up for a spot in the Masquerade.
