Anime Expo is well known for how friendly it is to cosplayers. As far as conventions go has one of the most comprehensive sets of activities to engage cosplayers. No matter how you choose to participate, cosplay is a big part of the Anime Expo experience.
In addition to the listed activities, there are many other ways to enjoy cosplay at Anime Expo. You can walk around the convention center and admire costumes, or participate in panels and discussions.
No matter how friendly a convention is to cosplayers it doesn’t stop the harassment that cosplayers often face at these events. Con organizers litter the convention with signs that say “Cosplay is Not Consent”.
Always ask permission before taking a photo, for example, do not take suggestive photos of a cosplayer, their backside, or any side if the cosplayer is not aware. As a general rule, you should not touch a cosplayer or their costume. Even if it’s just to admire it. This helps ensure that everyone feels safe and respected.
If you see or experience anything that makes you uncomfortable, please report it to a staff member, volunteer, or security guard. AX has a zero-tolerance policy for abuse and harassment, and we will take any necessary action to ensure the safety of their guests.
