UwU Con welcomes media outlets from Phoenix, AZ, and around the world, and we’re happy to provide approved members of the media with complimentary Media badges. The Media badge application for 2025 is now accepting applicants.

It's a new year, we're at a new venue so we are hosting a new showcase! This year, the Cosplay Showcase will be divided into 2 categories: Craftsman and Performance. 

Craftsman

• ALL levels are welcome (Novice, Intermediate, Journeyman, Advanced, Master and beyond).
• Costumes must be 50% handmade and they MUST be completed at the time of submission.
• Craftsman must provide a link to a shared drive that has 10 photos of their WIP and at least 1 video of themself working on the costume. This media will be used to create a custom video which will be played during their walk on.
• Craftsman will walk the stage for 30 seconds, posing and showing off their costumes before seating themself next to the MC who will ask 3-5 questions about their cosplay and themself. 

Performance

• All skits/performances must have 1 or more people (maximum of 8 performers on stage).
• Performers can wear costumes that are made or bought.
• Music for the performance MUST be ready at time of application as it will be reviewed by UwU Con Cosplay & Panel Programming staff.
• Performers will have up to 3 minutes on stage before they are taken aside and asked 2-3 questions about what went into preparing their performance.

IMPORTANT: The showcase is NOT a judged competition. Participants will have the option to request feedback from the CosTalk LIVE leaders who have partnered with UwU Con to host and manage this event. Feedback will be delivered privately via email and CTL is open to meeting via a virtual discussion for any questions. UwU's goal for the showcase this year is to celebrate local crafters and performers without the pressure of meeting judging criteria.

Each entry will receive a gift bag thanking them for participating in the UwU Con 2025 Showcase along with a QR code for a Full Event badge to UwU Con 2026.
