Gallifrey One came back for 2022! Gallifrey One is the largest and longest running Doctor Who convention. Doctor Who is a science-fiction, time travel show that follows “the Doctor” and their companions through time and space. This year, cosplayers attended Gallifrey One in their favorite Doctor Who cosplay.
Doctor Who Cosplay
From different regenerations of Doctors to companions, monsters, and more, here are some of the Doctor Who inspired cosplays from the Gallifrey One convention.
Cross-Over Cosplays
A “cross-over” cosplay is when a cosplayer combines multiple fandoms into one cosplay. Here are a few of the cross-overs we found! See if you can figure out what fandoms these cosplayers are combining.
Unique Doctor Who Inspired Cosplay Ideas
Gallifrey One is an opportunity for fans of Doctor Who to create unique cosplays that are not directly taken from the screen. Cosplayers can use their imaginations to create a unique version of their favorite character from the show or audio series.
Doctor Who Cosplay Meet-Ups
We (Temple of Geek) began hosting an annual punk Cosplay meet-up inspired by Doctor Who that took place during Gallifrey One in 2019. This meet-up was inspired by a piece of art by comic book artist Rachael Stott of the 12th Doctor in punk fashion. This year, cosplayer and Temple of Geek contributor Christina.Is.Crafty hosted the 3rd annual meet-up. This meet-up has become a favorite among some of the regular attendees. These meet-ups gave people the opportunity to add a little bit of style to their Doctor Who-inspired cosplays and fashions. Many times, cosplay is a direct representation of what we see on screen in terms of what we wear as cosplay. With fashion, it is up to the individual how they represent their fandom. This type of cosplay is more inspired by the idea of the character.

Loki Cosplay Meet-up
Loki variants were also spotted this year! Some cosplayers brought out their favorite Loki variant cosplay while others combined their variant with Doctor Who flare.
Whovians of TikTok Meet-up
This year, the hosts of “TikTok Galliday” hosted an in-person meet-up at Gallifrey One. PerfectTenCosplay and JaytheRose have hosted a virtual Doctor Who event on the TikTok app since 2020. It was a way for cosplayers and fans of the show to come together as a community to celebrate their love of the characters.
