The costume contest is returning to Burg Comics Con 2016. Categories for the costume contest will be Children (Ages 0 to 13) and Adult.
Costume Contest Rules:
- Any prop, item or activity that presents the possibility of damage to the entrants, their costumes, the audience, or the facility is prohibited.
- Good taste must be used in the creation and presentation of costumes. Gore, violence, nudity, profanity and other objectionable elements are prohibited. Burg Comics Con is a family oriented event so please use common sense in the selection of your costume.
- Failure to abide by any of the costume contest rules may result in disqualification from the contest and possible removal from the convention site.
- Most genres of costumes are welcome for the contest. However, to be eligible for prizes, your costume should be at least 25% hand-made and fit the super-hero/super-villain genre.
- If you have any questions about costume contest rules, please contact Burg Comics at admin@burgcomics.com.
The winner of the Adult category will receive a $75 gift certificate to spend at the convention. The winner of the Children category will receive a $25 gift certificate to spend at the convention. And, in honor of our special guest Rick Burchett who inked her first appearance, there will be a bonus $25 convention gift certificate for the top classic Harley Quinn costume. We will also have a special backdrop at the con for cosplay photos!
