Introduction

In July 2011, the European Cosplay Gathering, ECG for short, went through the finals of its first edition. This big European cosplay contest is on again with a great tour of Europe during which cosplayers are selected to take part in the finals set at Japan Expo in July 2015.

3 or 4 participants are chosen in each of the following 11 countries: Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

The ECG allows the entrants to parade on the biggest cosplay stage in Europe, the Ichigô Stage at Japan Expo, in front of 15,000 people. More than a mere cosplay show, the ECG finals are a masterpiece!

Yaya Han, talented cosplayer and guest of the festival, will be part of the jury.
