What is SoyCon?

SoyCon is a large weekend summer cosplay event where attendees can fulfill their weekend with the joy of cosplay, promote their interest of manga, anime, video games, & more, and of course, have alot of fun. The weekend is split up into 2 different days with each having it's own unique gathering style.

The first day will be a photoshoot gathering where cosplayers can enjoy the cityscape environment of downtown Chicago to obtain many photo opportunities. We will be stopping at various locations at places such as Millenium Park, Buckingham Fountain, and more. Got a cosplay you want to show off? This will be a great opportunity to bring it out in an atmosphere like this. Cosplay is not manditory, but welcomed. Bring your cameras, your camcorders, and even your friends because there will be lots of things you don't want to miss.

On the second day, there will be a picnic gathering where attendees can sit and relax with everyone to enjoy lots of food and participate in events. It's the perfect opportunity to get to know your attendees and meet new people along the way. We will host events such as a cosplay contest, skit performance, and even a talent show to show off your abilities. Prizes will be given out so don't miss out!

SoyCon will do their best to make sure each attendee comes out and have a great time. There's only one thing we ask from each of the attendees: HAVE A GREAT TIME!!
