In true Las Vegas fashion, and to add some incentive, there’s a chance that your era look could win you something! The con runners will be checking out everyone's era appropriate outfits and awarding $100 in gift certificates to that day’s winner! So even if you don’t plan to cosplay, there’s an excuse to dress up and have some fun!
The era theme will also apply to daily cosplay contests, focusing on that day’s particular time period, "with the top winner getting a $500 gift certificate." This is in addition to STLV's big cosplay contest on Saturday that will include any and all eras, but the daily cosplay contests will stick to that day’s decade and only that decade. So if you’re attending be sure to plan your outfits or cosplays accordingly!
