You can enter the contest in literally any costume you want, store bought, 100% homemade, whatever. Please understand some folks are competing and want to win. Others want to have an experience. Others are just goofing, having fun. We are all about all these things and are not going to turn anyone away, especially Kids contest!

There are not categories or requirements for Group or kids contests in terms of costumer creation

For all contests sign up at the main stage area and show up to the stage about 30 min prior to “check in” and be ready for details and lining up with the team!
