Cosplay Contest
The crown jewel of all FanCon events is our amazing cosplay contest!
Walk the main stage and show off your cosplay creativity for all to enjoy. Regardless of your experience level, if you want to sign up to be involved in our cosplay contest, there is a division for you, and it is free to join.
DIVISIONS
Depending on experience and level of entries, contestants will select placement into the appropriate division.
-
Novice: New cosplayers and those without a cosplay contest award.
-
Journeyman: Cosplayers who have some experience and may have won previous awards.
-
Masters: Experienced cosplayers who have the confidence to participate against the best of the best.
Costumes will be judged by a select group of professional cosplayers based on criteria including accuracy, polish, difficulty, build percentage and impact.

MEDIA ACCREDITATION AND ON-SITE MEDIA
Media accreditation and services for the Island FanCon event are provided to media on assignment to cover Island FanCon. Due to the demand for tickets, the number of Press Passes available is limited, and we cannot approve every request.
For best results, please submit a request for media accreditation no later than one month before the event and provide as much information as possible. Please note that guidelines for on-site media will be shared with those selected for accreditation.
