Check out cosplay photos from Day 3 of WonderCon 2022! The weekend has come and gone, and one of the best takeaways was that cosplayers have come back in full force. It has been 3 years since WonderCon hosted an in-person event! This weekend, WonderCon returned to the Anaheim Convention Center for a celebration of pop culture and the arts.

Cosplay Photos From Day 3 of WonderCon 2022
Cosplay, or “costume play,” is a fun way for convention-goers to express themselves, be creative, and make new friends. WonderCon is a fan favorite convention among cosplayers. Cosplay is in no way a requirement for attending the convention. It is optional for all attendees.
You can usually find several fan-organized cosplay meetups throughout the weekend as well as a Cosplay Competition hosted by the Convention. Which is basically a talent show before a large audience, showcasing amazing costumes crafted by our non-professional attendees.
