The Crazy World of the World Cosplay Summit

Aichi is the home of the Japanese Cosplay boom sweeping the world. Every year the World Cosplay Summit is staged in Aichi’s capital, Nagoya, every August, drawing thousands from overseas, and many, many more from across Japan to take part in dressing up as your favorite anime, manga, or game hero or character. The amount of time and effort put into the costumes is incredible! The atmosphere in the city center is electric!

It’s colorful, it’s entertaining, it’s fun, it’s creative, it’s crazy, it’s amazing! It’s the World Cosplay Summit!

(Japanese Anime, Manga and Game Culture spreads across the world!)

Teams from 30 countries around the world compete for the title of World Cosplay Champion!

You’ll be amazed as the Red Carpet Parade takes place along Nagoya City Central’s Nishiki Dori main street in front of capacity crowds. Many thousands more gather in full costume around the futuristic looking shopping and event space at Oasis 21 and the ancient Osu Kannon Temple precincts. There are events in Aichi’s seaside Gamagori, and at the historic Museum Meiji Mura too. Then comes the big event itself,…the World Cosplay Championships.

(Even if you don’t know what’s going on, it’s still great fun to watch!)
