Marscon 2021 Costume Presentation

Welcome to the Marscon 2021 Costume Presentation! Like everything else in this unusual time the Costume contest has been re-designed and re-thought to make things safe for all our participants. This year the Costume presentation will be online through Discord.

As a costume presentation rather than a contest we are opening it to all costumes past and present pictures, videos, and actual costumes as well as representations are welcome!

2 Minute Presentation. Each presenter will be given 2 minutes to present their costume(s) while all other contestants are muted. It is not necessary to use the entire 2 minutes. After each presentation there will be a2 minute open comment section before the next contestant is called. Remember there is a 2 minute time limit for each presentation. If you want to do a montage of past costumes remember 2 minutes tops!!

All presentations must be registered 30 minutes prior to the contest start. This is to allow proper allocation of preparation of time for all presentations. Since there is no audience except us but to allow each presentation to be heard, all microphones except the moderator will be muted during the presentation. After all presentations are complete the floor will be “opened” for congratulations and comments.

There will be 5 awards acknowledging presentations.

• Best presentation Youth: 12 and under have not won an award.
• Best Presentation Novice: 3 or less past performances have not won an award.
• Best Presentation Experienced: 3 or more past presentations have not won award.
• Master Award: Have won costume contest prior.
• Best of Show: open to all by popular vote.

MarsCon is a fan-run science fiction convention for all ages held every March in the Twin Cities area. At MarsCon you’ll find panel discussions, parties, guest of honor presentations, music of many kinds, our art show, film/anime room, science room, dealers room, charity auction, and masquerade. Our comedy music track is virtually a con in itself, and attracts a nation-wide audience.
