The international pop culture and gaming festival AnimeSHOW opened its doors for the 11th year on Friday afternoon in the Ružinov House of Culture in Bratislava. The event features exhibitions of computer, card and table games as part of the Game Expo, but also a cosplay costume contest where visitors can dress up as their favourite gaming or movie character, with the winner heading to the Cosplay Championships in Budapest. This year's event will also feature a singing and dancing competition for the KPOP World Festival, as well as Quidditch and PC gaming tournaments. The event will close on Sunday, March 25.
