In honor of Fanime’s Grand Prix theme this year, Dreamscape and Senpai Squad are putting together a car show for Fanime 2024! They’ll be hosting a huge itasha showcase in South Hall featuring amazing cars from all over the Bay and beyond, so bring your best racing-themed cosplays!
Itasha Showcase
Located in the South Hall, this showcase will feature itashas (cars decorated with images of characters from anime, manga, or video games) and high quality car show builds.
Be on the lookout for a special itasha designed just for Fanime 2024!
There will be a stage in South Hall featuring a DJ playing music throughout the day, so come hang out while checking out some impressive cars!
Cosplayers Welcome!
Besides the cars, there will also be photo sets in the South Hall, open for anyone to take photos with! Cosplayers are welcome to take photos with the sets as well as the cars, but are NOT allowed to touch the cars without the owner’s permission.
Join us for our special Race Queen Gathering led by Dreamscape x Senpai Squad on Saturday!
Itasha Etiquette
Feel free to take photos of and with the cars! The cars featured in the showcase have endless hours of work put into them, just like cosplay, so do NOT touch the cars without express permission from the owner (look for staff to ask if you are allowed to).
