Come and say hi to some of the most stunning cosplayers from Malaysia and abroad at their booths! Here, you can admire their sugoi cosplays, buy merch to show support and take a selfie with them too to immortalise the moment. (But remember to ask if they consent or charge to take pictures!)

Don’t sit out on this rare opportunity to meet and greet big players in the cosplay scene, from the Douyin-famous international cosplayer Jane Jie to Cos-Mic Stars’ very own lineup of stunning local cosplayers including Eevon, Phi, Hanabi, Helen, Stella and Jiajia!
