What is the Live Viewing & Special Talk Show?

The “Live Viewing & Special Talk Show” is a special stage where you can watch the World Cosplay Championship — the competition to crown the No.1 cosplayer in the world — on a big screen while enjoying live commentary and guest appearances.

🎥 Live Viewing

The Championship held at the Aichi Arts Center will be screened live on a large screen at a special venue.
Feel the heat of the stage together from the audience!

🎤 Special Talk Show

Guests will include well-known voice actors and creators.
Behind-the-scenes stories, live commentary, unexpected tangents… it’s a spontaneous, live-only talk session where anything can happen!

There will be no official streaming or reports — the charm lies in the raw, chaotic, on-site atmosphere.
This WCS signature event is packed every year, with roaring laughter and surprise from the audience. It’s what we proudly call a “cult classic.”
