Event Attractions

Cosplay Masquerade

The perfect place to showcase your funniest skits, favourite characters and incredible craftsmanship. Take to the stage in front of friends and fellow cosplayers and share in a celebration of all things nerd! To be part of this pelase either register on the website or see a member of staff in Cosplay HQ prior to the event.

Japanese Fan Making

Running all weekend, in the cosplay tent. Come up and make a custom Japanese styled fan. Pick from traditional Japanese patterns or colour your own - we love your style!

Ready Steady Cosplay

A return of a classic. Bring your creative minds and hands and get stitching!

Shibori

Shibori is a traditional Japanese fabric dyeing technique used in the creation of unique and vibrant patterns. Available all weekend, come to the cosplay tent and make your own traditionally dyed indigo banner in the style of the house banners. Please note items have to be left in dye for a long period of time. The earlier you attend, the more intense the colour on the final outcome.

Summer Friendship Bracelets

Returning for its second year, the super popular friendship braclet making station will return to the cosplay tent where you can create to your hearts content! This year Katie will be on-hand to teach you some more intricate sub-culture styles.

Yokai Walk

The return of the fan-favourite but this time, with more.... You guessed it... More Yokai! This time with a daylight version for the scaredy cats, younger audience or those just not in the mood to be frightened as much as learn. We take you on a Yokai hunt - make sure to pay attention to the clues! Sign up for your time slot at Cosplay HQ!
