If you know of a convention that needs to be added to the list or have updated your own convention's policy, you can fill out the form here. If you find any broken links or have any questions about this page, please contact Fractali at admin@cosplayer-ssn.org. This is a perpetual work in progress!

Important note for cosplayers, especially transgender cosplayers: there is a state ban in Utah for transgender people using facilities consistent with their gender identity in government-owned buildings and spaces, including schools through the college level. Although many conventions are private events often excluded from these laws, we urge that you plan ahead for your travel to ensure you are safe wherever you need to make a stop. Regardless of your gender identity, should you need a restroom or changing room, someone may perceive what you are cosplaying as being consistent with "breaking the law." Please stay alert and plan ahead.

Note: conventions with * have either not updated for several years, have a malfunctioning website, or may be defunct.

Note: FanX Salt Lake (Comic Con)'s full policy can be found by scrolling to the bottom of the page, clicking on "Safety," then clicking the smaller text "Get More Info: Harassment Policy FAQ." While there appears to be a way to report (possibly anonymously), one must have an account with the FanX website to view information related to it. We don't consider needing to have an account to report to be free, publicly available information, and the offer of the Utah Attorney General's Harassment Hotline as the largest, primary way to make a report might be a deterrent.
