Get ready to bring your favorite characters to life at ITHACON 48. This year’s event will feature a range of exciting cosplay activities, welcoming all levels of cosplayers and fans to celebrate creativity, artistry, and fandom.

Strut your stuff on the Cosplay Runway in Emerson Suites. This inclusive event highlights all cosplayers equally with no competitive aspect and gives everyone a chance to showcase their hard work and amazing costumes. To participate, there will be two volunteers at both entrances that will take your name and costume info.

The IC Art Club will also hold a cosplay figure drawing session, where talented cosplayers serve as live models. Whether you’re an experienced artist or picking up a pencil for the first time, this is a fantastic opportunity to show off your skills with free art supplies available on-site. Cosplayers interested in being drawn can sign up via the QR code on the event poster.

ITHACON will have a photo area with a step-and-repeat backdrop, perfect for snapping pictures of your cosplay. Open to all attendees, whether in costume or not.

There will be a cosplay repair station fully stocked with duct tape, safety pins, rubber bands, and other essential supplies to help you fix any last-minute wardrobe malfunctions.
