2016 AMAZING LAS VEGAS COMIC CON WEEKEND COSPLAY SPOTLIGHT

COSPLAY is a huge phenomenon at comic conventions across the country and has been a key part of Amazing Las Vegas Comic Comic Con since our very start. Whether you are one of the HUNDREDS of people coming to the convention in costume, or one of the THOUSANDS of admirers, check out these great attractions coming to the Las Vegas Convention Center THIS WEEKEND:

SATURDAY NIGHT COSTUME CONTEST A crowd pleasing event, taking place on Saturday June 18th, the Amazing Cosplay Contest begins at 7pm when the main hall closes. Contestants walk the catwalk, competing for one of the classic swords trophies that have become a hallmark for the Amazing Las Vegas Comic Con. Want to be a part of the contest? Sign up anytime before 5:00pm on Saturday afternoon at the Garage FX Booth on the main floor of the convention center.

GARAGE FX Family run organization, the Fowler/Caldwell clan teaches the do’s and don’ts of costume and prop making. The best part- they do these things with basic items found in your garage or local hardware store. Cosplay has never been so easy. See them on the main floor for a full schedule of their live demonstrations each day.
