These are all the same event! We are limited in the amount of characters we can type in an event title. Since our event encompasses: Anime, Game, Horror, Marvel, Disney, Star Wars, Alice in Wonderland, this is simply too long to put into an event title. To make it easier and in order to reach fans of each theme, we have created separate events for these themes but keep in mind, it is all the same event.THIS EVENT SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. HOW DO I KNOW THIS IS A LEGITIMATE EVENT? We encourage you to Google us at "amazing art expo" where you will see many updates, reviews, etc. We have over 64,000 followers on Facebook, 44,000 on Instagram and have been in business since 2016.

We do not believe A.I. art is actually art and we stay firm with that decision.IS PHOTOGRAPHY ALLOWED? You are welcome to photograph cosplayers and the overall event— both are encouraged to share with friends. However, due to encounters of theft, attempts in converting the art via A.I. and/or unauthorized reproduction (bootlegging) of the artwork, our artists request no photography of the art itself please. Out of respect for the artists, this rule is strictly enforced.DO I HAVE TO COSPLAY TO ATTEND THE EVENT?
