3. What is Cosplay?Cosplay encourages you to dress and be
a character you love, but it is the
individual components of ‘cosplay’ that
make it so unique. The ‘Costume’
element when crafted leads into several
different skill-sets such as prop making
and sewing.
The ‘Play’ or ‘Performance’
element with either a made or
purchased costume leads to spectacular
shows such as a cosplay masquerade.
With such a vibrant community and so
many individual elements making up the
art form that is ‘cosplay’ navigating
around this can be tricky, Costume and
Play provides services to help companies
understand the multiple benefits of
cosplay such as its incredible audience
engagement, while rooting itself firmly in
the community to help grow it.
What do we do?
Our mission...▪ To stand for each individual cosplayer within the
community voicing the UK’s movement of costuming.
▪ To harness the amazing skill set within each cosplayer and
present them with more opportunity.
▪ To serve the most vibrant, active and dedicated
community of fans doing what we can to spread the love
within it.

that look
like?
▪ Cosplayers go to more cons
than practically any other
group, with 64% attending 3 or
more fan events a year, and
27% going to 5 or more.
▪ Nearly a quarter (23%) of fans
identify themselves as serious
cosplayers, and/or people who
go to shows just to engage in
cosplay.
▪ (59%) said they spend between
£68 and £344 at fan events. (not

14. Some options…
Basic: Guesting Zone Area
One Masquerade/registration table – 3
invited guest judges.
This would enable us to run up to two
panels on stage and provide one – two
masquerades.
This option can be added to with cosplay
press focusing on reporting on the
Masquerade itself and 5-10 community
based guests/one cosplay group.
One Masquerade/registration table – 3
invited cosplay guests with tables.
This would enable us to run up to two
panels on stage and provide one – two
masquerades while
providing a small interaction area with
cosplay itself (including prints, props,
sewing etc.)
One Masquerade/registration table – 3
invited cosplay guests, 5 zone area
tables.
This would provide the framework to
cover a smaller but comprehensive zone
area comprising of the 5 elements of
cosplay which would also enable us to
run informative demonstrations and small
workshops based around those areas.
(Sewing, Props, Performance,
Modelling/Photography and
workshops/demonstration table.)
15. Some options…
Full Full with Stage Costumes, Commissions and
Installations
One Masquerade/registration table – 3
invited cosplay guests with tables, 5
zone area tables.
This would provide a larger more
comprehensive structure with
considerably fuller workshops and
demonstrations along with a
comprehensive and informative set up of
the 5 zone area tables.
(Sewing, Props, Performance,
Modelling/Photography and
workshops/demonstration table)
Same as full scale with added
community guests and dedicated

Thank you for your time!
Costume and Play have played a key role in growing the UK Cosplay
community to new heights. Cosplay is becoming widely accepted in
society following the increasing coverage by the media and the
continued steady growth of events. Our work is not done, with your
help we plan on continuing this trend. Our goal is to push cosplay to
it’s full potential, recognising the skill and creativity of the community.
“[Cosplay is the] freedom to have fun being other people, being
artistic and show off my skills at the same time as having oodles of fun
being someone else.”
- Kym Horton, Clicker from The Last of Us.
