Masquerade
|
The CAN-CON Masquerade is an amateur costume and sketch competition for costumes of any origin including but not limited to: Media Recreation (example Star Wars, Star Trek, Comic Books, Anime, Buffy), Historical, Literary inspired and Original Designs. The contest spans all levels of craftmanship and experience, from first-time participants to seasoned professionals.
The CAN-CON Masquerade follows the Divisional System Guidelines set out by the International Costumers Guild.

Dance
|
After the masquerade stick around for some groovy tunes, electrifying songs and mischievous airs as DJ Johnny Zed whips them out of his massively eclectic collection. He's been a DJ in the con scene for over 20 years now and knows how to party fandom-style!
While the titles in his collection speculatively number in the 1000s he will make a valiant attempt to fulfill all requests. Failing that, he will play a reasonable facsimile, that is in some way related, directly or indirectly, to the original song of choice.
This dance event will have no specific theme but we promise a dance floor in a fantastic room with dimmed lighting for all your dancing needs.
