- Cosplay Welcome: Naturally, we want to see your incredible creativity! So, suit up in your best outfits and join the local Scottish cosplay community on the streets of Ayr.
Plan Your Visit to the Next Event
Because our town takeover is spread across the centre, it is incredibly easy to plan a full day out around your visit.
- Venues: Ayr Town Hall, The Grain Exchange, and The Cutty Sark Centre (Ayr, KA7)

Instead of staying stuck in one room, you can explore the town, grab a bite to eat at a local café, and pop between the zones at your own pace.
