Step into the world of cosplay with confidence – just in time for King Con 2026! Cosplay is about building costumes and accessorising to represent your favourite characters from comics, anime, movies, TV, video games and more.

Our panel of experienced cosplayers will share their tips, tricks, and behind‑the‑scenes stories to help you start your own creative journey.
What you’ll learn:
· choosing a character
