Photos: Best Costumes From Dragon Con 2019


Dragon Con 2019 in Atlanta, Georgia, was an absolute success this year! The pop culture, fantasy, sci-fi, and gaming convention attracted a record-breaking 85,000 attendees for the five-day celebration and raised over $110,000 for its official 2019 charity, the American Heart Association’s Georgia affiliate.


The show brought in all kinds of genre favorites like George Takei and Lou Ferrigno, along with A-List celebrities including Karl Urban and Jack Quaid from Amazon Prime Video’s The Boys, Zachary Levi from Shazam!, and David Tennant who most of us know simply as The Doctor. And this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to talent at Dragon Con. Hundreds of artists from all around take up two floors of the show space, and a third for the actual art show that is held at the event. There is a floor dedicated to arcade games and tabletop games, viewing rooms, multiple dealers rooms, parades, parties, panels, you name it, Dragon Con’s got it.



But it’s the costumes that I feel really bring all the attendees out to Dragon Con each year, or as I like to call it when the sun goes down; Nerdy Gras! I’ve talked with so many attendees who tell me it is the one show they come back to each year and try and outdo themselves costume-wise. These outfits blow anything away that you may see downtown on Halloween. We’re talking full-armored suits, living-breathing dragons, entire superhero teams, and just some of the coolest cosplay you will ever see in person.


Check out all the amazing costumes below from this past year. If anything, It may help you prep for the 2020 show.
