Safety and Regulations

I am a cosplayer. Do you have policies regarding costumes, weapons and props ?

We love cosplay! You are welcome to attend the event in your favorite costume, in compliance with the following rules: 

  • Weapons, props looking like weapons, or any object destined to be used as weapon are not allowed on site (for example, a craft foam dagger, a firearm replica or brass knuckles all fall in this category and are strictly forbidden). 
  • All objects with metallic outline (such as spikey bracelets and belts) are forbidden.  
  • Your cosplay must not bother in any way the other visitors, especially during the concert: in particular, bulky elements and headgear (helmets, hats, massive wigs or elven ears, horns…) will have to be removed before entering the concert hall. If they are bigger than a small bag or tote bag, they must be left in the free cloakroom. 
  • Any object that is not attached to your costume (staff, spell book…) is considered a prop. In this case, standard security rules apply and any object larger than a small bag or tote bag must be left in the free cloakroom. We decline all responsibility in case of damage. 
  • Our event is family friendly. Nudity, prosthetic genitalia and suggestive costumes are forbidden. 
  • Costumes inciting hate crimes and uniforms, emblems, or flags of organizations responsible for crimes against humanity are forbidden. 

The organizers reserve the right to deny entry or confiscate any props or part of costume deemed too bulky or potentially dangerous. 

Please note that there may be professional cosplayers on site: in this case, they are accredited and may follow different regulations. 

For your own comfort, we’d like to remind you that the concert is being held in an auditorium and that seating space is limited and might not be suitable for bulky costumes.
