The Cairns Show - Annually we're invite to attend The Cairns Show, adding to the lively vibes. We're attend to show off our costumes, interact with families and other individuals for a fun day of carnival greatest
We also attend local charity events and markets. Invites are always welcomed!

Collaborations

Event Cinemas - They have coordinated with Event Cinemas to organize cosplay events aligned with movie releases, enhancing the cinematic experience for fans.
We also attend local charity events & markets. Usually by invitation
For businesses, it's considered promotion and the time and effort for the cosplayers are usually compensated by them.

Business Promotions

Time and effort for the cosplayers are usually compensated by the business.

For example, when we did an arcade promotion, cosplayers were paid hourly but compensation can change depending on the business. Sometimes even just supplying lunch for them is enough but it must be sufficient.

NOTE: These are volunteer cosplayers and are not hired or employees of Yoko's Corner Anime Store.
