Calling all fans and cosplayers! Be part of the magic by coordinating your own photoshoot or meetup at Zenkaikon 2025! This year we’ll be having distinctions between Cosplay Photoshoots and Fandom Meetups! Unsure of which one your event will fall under? Here’s a quick breakdown!

Cosplay Photoshoot

Choose your genre/fandom, gather your fellow cosplayers, and capture unforgettable memories. Take pictures by character, groups, ships, etc.!

Fandom Meetups

Connect with fellow fans, share the love, and celebrate your favorite universes together. No cosplay required! Just a space for like minded fans to enjoy sharing discussions about their favorite media!

Time Slots Are Limited – Submit your application sooner than later!
All shoots and meetups you submit are coordinated by YOU. Don’t miss your chance to shine and share your passion with your fandom’s community!
