Formula Cosplay Europe 2nd Edition | Photography: Vi Young

Formula Cosplay Europe 2nd Edition | Photography: Vi Young

Formula Cosplay Europe had their second edition last Saturday, this time with more visitors! They also held I Love K-POP at the same time, so the main stage was shared between these two events. The program was quite full so there was enough to do, it was a bit difficult to find out where to go for the activities though. KinJin, for example, was all the way in the back of the food area. For next year it’d be better to clearly show where all the locations are, instead of how they’ve done it this year. The ground floor was easy to figure out, you had the main stage with stands like AVO and Cositivity, the cosplay rental booth from Yashincon, and NoZLan their photobooth. Further to the back were the dealers, CABNL (Cosplay Against Bullying NL), and Lea’s cosplay repair point. Overall it was quite a fun edition but there is still room for improvement in 2018.

Disclaimer: Although AVO was a partner of Formula Cosplay Europe, AVO had little influence on the convention itself.

Live photo of the idol group ASP on stage, in the middle of performing a song. The stage is brightly lit with red and blue lights. They have their right arms raised while singing. The members are dressed in leather(-like) clothing, giving the idea that it is inspired by motor clothing. The clothing is mostly black but differently decorated, with red and blue stripes, white stars in different sizes, and other symbols or words. Some of them are fully dressed like that, while others have extra additions, like a tartan-style skirt. Photography by JJ Grant (wonderlens)
