Holiday Matsuri 2019 Friday Gallery Part 1 by Zephyrlynk Productions
It’s been seven years since we had someone at Holiday Matsuri covering all the amazing cosplay going on at the Orlando World Center Marriott. Aside from just being a great destination for cosplayers looking to get out of the December cold up north, HolMat is loaded up with events both specific to cosplay and fun for the general attendance crowd.
In addition to the Holiday Runway Contest and the Winter Cosplay Crown Costume Contest, HolMat has a K-Pop Dance Cover Contest and even the Idol Fest, featuring “local idols and cosplay dance group performers.” Lots of local idols in Orlando, then? But still, those are all just a fraction of the events available for people attending HolMat.
Jake of Zephyrlynk Productions flew down to Orlando Thursday of the week that ended with the three days of HolMat, Dec. 13-15. On Friday the 13th he took nearly 300 photos, making for three galleries from that first day alone. On Saturday he also did video so stay tuned to our YouTube channel for a cosplay video, in addition to all of his galleries on this site.
Cosplayers in this first of three Friday galleries are k8sarkissian, sutefaniiroozu, Handsome Jordan, ohmyjeanmarie, _kiwami_, sailorgeekcosplay, Rurounichan Cosplay, buniimoon, oceanic_pastels, starchocobocrafts, ManaKnight Cosplay, emunarum, amazonian.waifu, twiincosplay, cospillow, Karestat Cosplay, praticallyalice, Spectra, and many more.
We now use Smugmug to present cosplay photo galleries and will post all photos there, with a link to each gallery in its own gallery article. This will allow us to give you higher resolution images to download — still for free.
To view the entire gallery, just click on the image below. If you are pictured in any of our galleries, feel free to download the images and use them non-commercially on social media, with appropriate credit.
