COSPLAY & MASQUERADE!!
Many people attending the Manchester MCM Expo will dress as their favourite characters. Elves mingle with Ninja from the Hidden Villages and Jedi, making the event full of colour and life.
Why not come in a costume from your favourite TV show, film, comic, videogame or anime yourself? Take part and join in the fun! You’re bound to have a great day, meet old acquaintances and make new friends with many of our regular cosplaying attendees.
There is also a Cosplay Desk run by friendly and experienced cosplayers handling weapons checking, emergency costume repairs, and the Cosplay Masquerade.
MASQUERADE:
Marvel at the craftsmanship in some amazing handmade costumes, enjoy the short skits and performances, or get on stage and feel the thrill of displaying your hard work to the audience- whether you like dressing up in costume or just want to watch, the masquerade offers entertainment for all.
The masquerade is a costume competition that will take place on the main stage in the afternoon of Manchester MCM Expo and there are some great prizes to be won for the most talented entrants!
There are a limited number of places for people and groups wanting to take part – so if you want to take part in the Masquerade we recommend you register online when advance registrations open (usually about a month before the event). A small number of places will be available on each day of the Expo as well, and these will be issued on a first come, first served basis.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR PERFORMANCES:
Audio tracks must be submitted in advance. It is strongly recommended that you prerecord any performance or skit, as microphones will not be available. Unsure how to go about this? Please do ask us for advice on the forum or by emailing: cosplay@mcmexpo.net
