San Japan Cosplay Show Entry Form

Online signup will close on August 10th @ 11:55pm

For rules about the cosplay show, please see the cosplay show rules. If you have any questions before filling out the form, please ask them on our forums.

As a regular reminder: even if you sign up online, you will need to come by the Cosplay Signup Room at the posted times listed in the schedule at the convention for early pre-judging of your costume and to confirm your entry. Do not show up on Saturday afternoon of the convention during Cosplay Show Setup thinking you’re already entered as you must stop by the Cosplay Signup Room to confirm your online entry! Location of this room will be posted at the convention.

Cosplay Sign-Up Form

This form is to pre-register your cosplay entry. This is intended for people who want to enter the Main Cosplay Show. For information & rules, please view our cosplay show rules before filling out this form.

You will still need to check in at the convention to verify that you intend to enter the contest.

We will still allow walk-ups entries if you are unsure if you'll be able to attend the convention but it's highly recommended to use this form to ensure that you are entered into the San Japan Cosplay Show.
