Dive into the vibrant world of TCG and cosplay! From full immersion in Japanese culture to discovering iconic fictional heroes, the Manga and Cosplay zones offer a colorful and engaging experience.
Booths, activities, live demos, and contests celebrate creativity, passion, and inclusivity — welcoming everyone from the casually curious to the enthusiasts.

Cosplay zone

A celebration of passion and talent through the worlds of fictional heroes and heroines.
The full artistry of cosplay will be showcased with costumes and pieces crafted using a variety of techniques — from sewing and leatherwork to 3D printing.

ZONE COSPLAY

Parade

Demonstrations, beginner sessions, and exclusive exchanges with professionals create an environment that promotes the accessibility of cosplay, encourages newcomers, and helps democratize the discipline.
A contest and a runway show will give cosplayers the chance to shine on the main stage of Paris Games Week.

Gala TCG powered by Asmodee

The TCG Gala covers the entire life cycle of a collectable card: its purchase in-store, its protection, its use in gameplay and its grading (encapsulation and card grading).
