Our second day at MomoCon started early because we wanted to catch as many great photos as possible. The Saturday crowds at MomoCon are much bigger than the Friday ones, which only make sense. With the people came the costumes and they were everywhere! As we stated in our overview of MomoCon, they were all family friendly and we saw people of all ages dressed up to varying degrees. MomoCon 2014 had 38,000 attending and by the crowds I saw the 2015 version will easily surpass that number.
Random observations from our time on the floor. It was great to see a millennial score 2.5 million on the Doctor Who pinball machine. The volunteer staff was extremely helpful with questions of all sort. The break-outs were all very informative, but an information card with who is presenting would be nice so that we can tweet them. If you need a costume-ask anyone and they know someone who can make you anything.
There are lots of night time MomoCon activities too. The program for the event is very clear to point out that these activities are more adult oriented and not meant for kids under 18. Case in point there was a rave last night that went on until 4AM.
The second day of MomoCon also brought out more older cosplay. There were still hundreds of younger cosplayers, but the college age crowd was obviously there for some serious cosplay and fun today.
MomoCon 2016 has been announced and is May 26-29th, that’s Memorial Day Weekend at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta.
