Asia Cosplay Festival will once again be featured on Mariner of the Seas next February – a delightful experience

Royal Caribbean International’s Mariner of the Seas will be transformed into a world of cosplay fantasy once again next February, when it plays host to Asia’s biggest cosplay festival at sea for the second time. (Cosplay, a contraction of “costume play,” is a performance art in which participants called cosplayers wear costumes and fashion accessories to represent specific characters.) “COSFEST SEA: Beyond The Great Horizons,” organized by The Singapore Cosplay Club in collaboration with the cruise brand, will be on a 3-night weekend cruise from Singapore to Penang from February 17 to 20. The region’s top cosplayers for the championship, plus exciting cosplay entertainment and activities, will be in store to spellbind fans and guests.
The biggest highlight of this theme cruise is the Asia Cosplay Meet Championship that will feature contestants from eight countries and territories such as China, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, the Philippines and Thailand, all vying for the top spot. For the first time as well, there will be guest contestants from the United States. This event will be open for public viewing for all the guests onboard to catch the action. There is also a special preview before the competition begins.
Other activities open to all guests include the ‘Movie Costume Museum,’ which will show an impressive display of costumes from many movie and animation titles and have costumes for guests to dress up their children for photo taking; the spectacular ‘Cosplay Parade’ along the Royal Promenade which will be filled with cosplayers dressed up as popular Anime characters; and the ‘Cosplay Treasure Hunt’ for participants to accomplish as many missions as possible onboard. Guests onboard will have the chance to meet some of their favorite movie characters.
