Here are some of the best cosplays of the event. Conventions are back! And while many may look to San Diego\u2019s Comic-Con last month, smaller conventions are also here to bring the wonder and passion of fandom under one roof. This includes Manchester MegaCon Live, which took place from July 30-31. The con included gaming sections, cast panels, and a cosplay masquerade that was clearly the event of the weekend, which was hosted by Guild of Nerds. We at Dexerto managed to make it to the con, and we immediately ran into a bunch of amazing cosplayers! Here are some of the greatest cosplays we managed to grab images of, along with how these talented cosplayers feel about their craft.

It changed color at the cosplayers will, and certainly made a splash at the Cosplay masquerade! MegaCon cosplays on social media Cosplaying is obviously massive across the internet, so while we sadly couldn\u2019t spot every cosplayer ourselves, it wasn\u2019t hard to find a bunch of talented cosplayers on Twitter! Take a look: Of course, with Thor: Love and Thunder having just come out, there were a ton of Thor cosplayers. With an Arcane voice actor, Jason Spisak, meeting people at the convention, naturally many people dressed up as his character, Silco. And so did he!
