Registration is open until 3 pm, and you can register by following these two simple steps (in any order):

• Visit our cosplay table!  You’ll give them some information and a judge from Mo’s Parlor will check out your fabulous costume.

• Swing by the Glitt3r Lyfe photo booth, sponsored by Back East BBQ, and get your photo taken!  You’ll also share some information, so when their judges admire your amazing cosplay they’ll be able to sync it up with the notes from the cosplay table!

• That’s it, enjoy the rest of the convention!  Winners will be notified the day of and can redeem their prizes from the cosplay booth, or later from Comics Place.  And kids, make sure to show off your cosplay and get an instant prize!

Have fun, and thanks for participating!

Want to see a bunch of other cosplayers?  Join our parade at 2 pm, meeting in the Hotel Leo lobby and going to Chuckanut Bay Distillery!  (Both venues are all ages, don’t let the name fool ya.)

We’re excited to welcome cosplayers of all kinds! To help everyone have a safe and enjoyable time, please review and follow the policies below.

• Cosplay is not consent. Always ask permission before taking photos or touching someone’s costume or props.

• Be respectful. Harassment, stalking, or unwanted attention of any kind is not tolerated. If someone says no, respect that immediately.

• Personal space. Give costumed attendees room to move safely through aisles and doorways.

• Always ask first. Never photograph anyone without permission, even in public areas.

• Be mindful of surroundings. Don’t block hallways, entrances, or vendor tables to take photos.

• No functional weapons of any kind. Real firearms, bladed weapons, or projectile devices (airsoft, paintball, etc.) are strictly prohibited.

• Props must be clearly fake. All props should be lightweight, non-metal, and clearly distinguishable from real weapons from at least 15 feet away.

• Prop inspection / peace-bonding. Props that look realistic (e.g., guns, swords) must be inspected at the entrance. Approved props will receive a peace-bond tag.

• No swinging, firing, or brandishing. Props must stay holstered or carried safely at all times.

• Convention staff reserves the right to refuse or revoke peace-bonding if a prop poses any risk or is deamed too realisitc.

• This is a family-friendly event. Costumes must provide appropriate coverage. Body paint alone is not considered clothing.

• Footwear required in all public areas.

• Hate symbols or offensive imagery are not permitted, even if “in character.”

• Follow staff directions. Security and staff decisions regarding safety are final.

• No horseplay or mock fighting. Even choreographed combat can injure bystanders in a crowded space.

• Zero tolerance for harassment. Report issues to any staff member immediately.

• Violations of these policies may result in removal without refund.

• Serious violations may involve local law enforcement.

• If you feel unsafe, see harassment, or need assistance: find the nearest staff member (look for official badges or shirts) or visit either Registration Desk.
