Over 30 Cosplay Group: Cosplay for Everyone

Room B

Sunday May 20, 2018 - 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm


Over 30 Cosplay Group is a global advocacy group with a mission dedicated to promote, support, provide and encourage  cosplayers over 30 years old to feel comfortable expressing themselves through costume and cosplay art forms  in convention and event settings.  We offer an informative and supportive safe place to discuss and collaborate on sensitive issues specifically related to cosplayers between the ages of 30-90 years old. Panel contributions will include celebrating the history of comic culture related to Over30Cosplayers, couple cosplay ideas, combating negative comments related to age, tips on costume choices flattering to our community, artistic and cultural costume choices incorporating retro ideas and genres, dating and family in the community,  social media/marketing awareness for older cosplayers and how to combat bullying in the community. Our panel addresses real issues to prepare, celebrate and assist Over30 cosplayers and costumers to feel confident, engaged and motivated! This panel and our ever growing group encourages cosplayers to enter the costuming community prepared and ready to contribute to the popular art form and culture we embrace called cosplay! Our community connects 90,000 Over30Cosplayers internationally and continuously strives to grow, reaching out to new members through such opportunities as panel discussions, group meet ups and online media support.
