For years, cosplayers asked for more than just a Masquerade at the London MCM Expo and in response we are pleased to present the Totally Cosplay area!
Whether you are a casual cosplayer looking for games and activities or more into the ‘serious business’ side of the hobby the Totally Cosplay area will have something for you. A dedicated stage with panels and performances, a variety of workshops, costume displays and photography area with a selection of props now complements the Cosplay Desk which continues to provide services such as bag and prop storage, supplies for repairs, and of course support for Masquerade entrants ^_^
Here’s our schedule for the October 2011 London MCM Expo- why not download it on to your mobile to keep it handy for the weekend?
Also available most hours are our Repairs Desk, Changing Areas, Cosplayer Bag Drop, and Photography areas! Come and see the Cosplay Magazine CosplayGen and the people behind the Cosplay Movie too!
