Cosplay Policies<br />
• <strong>Phoenix</strong> <strong>Comicon</strong> is all-ages and family friendly.<br />
Act accordingly.<br />
• Photography is not allowed to impede the flow of<br />
foot traffic. <strong>Phoenix</strong> <strong>Comicon</strong> has designated<br />
photo zones for taking pictures, use them.<br />
• Wait for consent! Whether for photos,<br />
hugs, or anything, ask first for clearly<br />
expressed permission. And “Cosplay ≠<br />
Consent.”<br />
• No solicitations, not of services, parties,<br />
not even “free hugs.”<br />
PHOENIX COMICON CONVENTION POLICIES<br />
Costume Policy<br />
• Costumes must cover at least as much as<br />
a swimsuit acceptable for public pools and<br />
beaches. That coverage also applies to<br />
chest enhancing padding. And no under- or<br />
side-cupping.<br />
• Body paint and nudity are NOT<br />
costumes, and are prohibited<br />
from convention premises. <strong>Phoenix</strong><br />
has nudity laws, and police<br />
will be around.<br />
• Remember appropriate undergar-<br />
ments. And no see-through clothing,<br />
or anything tight enough to<br />
reveal your “nooks and crannies.”<br />
• Protective footwear, with a hard<br />
sole, is required. Rollerblades and<br />
skates don’t count.<br />
• Military and law enforcement cosplay<br />
must not be realistic enough to pass<br />
for the real thing.<br />
• Costume appropriately. If your costume<br />
is risqué or controversial enough to invite<br />
complaints, please leave it at home.<br />
• No swastikas or related paraphernalia.<br />
Period.<br />
• Religious cosplay must not be<br />
inflammatory or disrespectful.<br />
• Be aware of your surroundings.<br />
Your costume must permit a clear<br />
line of sight. If your costume has<br />
extensions (like wings and spikes),<br />
avoid bumping into things or<br />
people.<br />
• Props must be distinguishable<br />
from real weapons at first glance.<br />
