Always remember: Cosplay is not consent! Keep your hands to yourself. If you would like to take a picture with or of another Cosplayer, fan, guest, VIP, etc., always ask permission first and respect that person's right to say no. We encourage everyone to be respectful, considerate, nice, and kind to each other. Our intent is that Cosplay and Cosplay events should be safe, fun, welcoming, accepting, and family friendly environment for everyone.
Have fun and stay safe!
