Welcome to the Canadian Cosplay Community!
We're a community of cosplayers, costume makers, otakus, gamers and more who have come together to create a place where we can hang out and meet other local people who share our interests. We operate out of Discord, which is a real time text and voice chat platform. Our goal is to provide you with a safe place where we all can meet other cosplayers, collaborate on projects together and discover new conventions in your area. We'd love to have you as part of our community!
