This is where you'll find all the best of Chicago's C2E2 2025 cosplay photos
The best cosplay of C2E2 2025.
See more of C2E2 2025 with a Popverse Superfan membership. Here a guide to everything happening at the Chicago event, including how to watch the big panels from anywhere in the world!
Chicago is called the Paris of the Prairie - and during the three days of C2E2 each year, it becomes the high-fashion Paris of the Prairie as cosplayers take over the boulevard, show floor, and everywhere in McCormick Place. From the cosplay main event that is Saturday's Cosplay Central Crown Championships to all the other cosplay workshops, panels, meet-ups, and general gawking that is allowed and encouraged it will become a feast for the eyes.
All weekend, Popverse will be roaming the floors and halls of C2E2 with the goal of capturing in photograph form as much of the amazing cosplay as we can and presenting it to you here. Come back April 11 and all through C2E2 weekend and thereafter to see all the pageantry.
