Cosplay Competition & Exhibition.
Sponsored by Famoré Cutlery, an annual highlight of the Spring Show, where multi-media artists transform fabric, foam, thread, leather, and beads into breathtaking wearable art.
A celebration of craft, brought to life.
From the moment the doors open, the Spring Show buzzes with color, craft, and connection, but nothing captures the crowd quite like the h+h americas Cosplay Competition & Exhibition. More than a runway show, it is a celebration of visionary cosplay designers whose looks each represent countless hours of skill, creativity, and dedication, powered by the very materials and tools that drive the crafting industry forward.
Cosplayers from across the country bring their most ambitious builds to the floor, inspiring attendees with what becomes possible when creativity and commerce come together. Thanks to our generous sponsors, 2026 contestants received over $14,000 in cash and prizes.
