Thai Cosplay Festival, Bangkok 2013, Thailand

EOY (End-of-Year)
This event has been running officially since 1999. Prior to this, the initial organizer, the Miyuki Animation Club, used to hold informal cosplaying get-togethers at their home Community Club. The first EOY event was held at Suntec City in December 1999. Subsequent locations changed to the Singapore Expo when it was organized by the Shiro Tsubasa Animation Club later, and then the National Library at Victoria Street when Black Alice took over. In 2010 it will be held at Republic Polytechnic.

The first AFA was held at Suntec City in 2008, with Ichirou Mizuki and May'n as the invited guests. This event has grown to include Danny Choo, Alodia Gosiengfiao, JAM Project, Scandal and AKB48 as performing guests. Much cosplaying actually takes place outside the event venue, on the empty space on level 3.
