COSCON 2025!

Oh, it’s happening, AGAIN!

CosCon 2o25 is happening: Saturday, May 17, 2025!  We will be doing this again and again, until we get it right – and then, we will keep doing it because it’s awesome!  It’s going to be BIGGER, BETTER, AND… bad-assier?  Is that a thing?

Regardless, we’re doing it – we’re having more guests, more vendors, more panels, and more activities!

Stay tuned for more details.

Location: 1111 Elm St. Grafton, Ohio, 44044

CosCon Cosplay Calendar Creation

Interested in being part of a really cool cosplay calendar that will also help fund CosCon, another cool cosplay event? Then here is the place! 

Submissions are open from now until July 31st. Those selected for the calendar will be notified by the end of August. We expect to have the calendars printed shortly after and delivered in the December/January time frame. 

Under the Cosplay Tag section on the sign up form, be sure to put whatever you want to be addressed as with your picture. This is what will be printed on the calendar so we want to make sure we address you all correctly. We will send out proofs the best we can but we may not catch everything. 

We ask that all parties involved get the correct permissions. This means that we ask for proof of photographer consent in order to use their images as per copyright laws. All you need is a simple screenshot of them giving permission or a photo release form can be uploaded as well. If we do not have all the proper permissions, your submission can not be considered for the calendar. 

To verify you’ve read all the rules, the code is 5567.

Full House! We win!

Oh, It’s On Like CosCon!

Distinguished readers! Today, we are celebrating a full house. That’s right, we have sold out every single vendor table in the facility! And we’ve made it our goal to ensure all attendees have a memorable experience.

Having said that, here are some things of note – as we get closer to the date!

Now for “the talk”…. (time for the parent to come out)

We would like to see everyone on their best behavior.  We have rules.  A Code of Conduct, if you will.  Because we want this to be a memorable experience for everyone, we want them to be positive memories.  So, if you would, please read the Code of Conduct.  Staff will be around to help you if you need it.

Moving on…..
We will have staff and volunteers on hand the day of, to help guide you around the convention, answer questions, and point you in the right direction if you need it.

For the vendors, we will have floaters available to watch your booth(s) while you might want to take a break, grab a bite to eat from one of the wonderful food trucks we will have the day of, and also – if you just needed a moment to step away for whatever reason.  We’ve got you covered. – – – Not to mention, we will have food runners.  SO, if you don’t want to leave your booth unless you absolutely have to, we have people that will take your order and go get it for you.  How cool is that??

If you, or one of your cosplay friends needs a quick and secure place to change costumes, we can provide that for you.  Just ask one of our staff members.  NOTE: Since this event is being held in an old school building, lockers can be made available for you to store your stuff.  Just remember to bring a small lock with you to secure it.

MOST IMPORTANTLY!
The day will go by quickly.  Take a moment.  Grab your friends or the person you are with (or a staff member) and stop.  Look around.  Take a minute to appreciate the others around you – The cosplayers, the vendors, the staff, and your friends.

Remember to have fun.

Let’s make some unforgettable memories together!

It’s Getting Closer!

As we get closer to the date – while still a little ways off, we need to start thinking about accommodating vendors/exhibitors/Cosplay Groups and, of course, the fellow attendess.

It is our wish that we create a memorable experience for everyone.  And, in doing so would like to address a few concerns and put forth our code of conduct and ethics.

As this is and will be an ever changing and growning convention, so will be this code of conduct. We reserve the right to review and change/update the code of conduct based on experiences at our convention or as participants have reported from other like conventions. As always, we do this for your safety and security.

Other important things to know:

  • When is the convention?
    • -Saturday, May 11th 2024 From 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
  • Why is it only one day?
    • -As this is a first year convention, we are still trying to understand the ins and outs of creating a successful convention. And until we can grow to that point that it will sustain multiple days, we want ot make sure that we can make this one as successful and as memorable as possible.
  • What does it cost to get in the door?
    • -$10! that’s right. 10 bucks (for adults). Children 8-12 are only $5 and Children 7 and under are FREE! Because, again, this is only a first year convention.
  • Will there be panels?
    • -Yep. We are working on that. They will be published closer to the date.
  • I run a small business (Or, I’m just generous) and I want to sponsor your event. Can I do that?
  • I can’t afford to sponsor the event, but can I make a donation of an amount of my choosing?
  • Will it be family friendly?
    • -Yes. We are working hard to ensure that everyone has a safe and family friendly environment to come and express their creativity and love of fandoms.

Lastly, if you are a costumer, a prop builder, a cosplay group, or a jewelry maker and interested in obtaining a booth, or are a food truck, and want to park your truck at our event for the day, we would love to have you.  Go here and reserve your space, now.
