Fan Expo Vancouver 2023

This years con once again took place over the Family Day long weekend and featured a wide variety of activities for the young and the young at heart. The Family Zone area was a big hit with the little ones, providing them with a variety of exciting activities and performances, while for the rest of us, this years con had plenty of attractions to make anyone’s inner child jump for joy. Guests included celebrities, voice actors and comic book creators as well as several fandom themed booths and highly talented artists in Artist Alley along with a variety of vendors selling all sorts of unique and fun items… and of course, plenty of Cosplay. Check out Cosplay at Fan Expo Vancouver 2023 galleries page for a collection of some of the fantastic cosplays.

Cosplay Red Carpet Recap

The Cosplay Red Carpet was a huge draw for all cosplayers attending the con, bringing them all together in one place to be photographed by the official photographer Addy Davies. Check out EpicPortraits PixieSet website to see Addy Davies red carpet photos. I made a fun little Red Carpet Recap video featuring a bunch of cosplayers who showed up to walk the red carpet. Enjoy!

Fan Expo Vancouver 2023 Guests Cosplayers

The official Guest Cosplayers in attendance were none other than the ever talented Anya Panda, Marquise Cubey, Cerberus Cosplay, and Jillea.

Bonus Video: I took the opportunity to chat with a few of the amazing vendors and talented artists at the con and was thoroughly impressed by what I saw. The dynamic duo of Old School Typewriters and Dave Benning Customs had some one of a kind Typewriter Art on display made from actual restored vintage typewriters and featuring iconic pop culture franchises. Dawn McTeigue, an extremely talented comic book artist, was present and sketching at her booth as she told me about her original work and how she shares her comic book creation process on live streams and social media. I also chatted with Red Moon Glassware to learn about their etched tumblers and flasks, each one featuring an icon from a wide variety of beloved fandoms. I then briefly met up with cosplayer and artist Gladzy at her booth to say hi and to check out some of her prints.
