It was a weekend of cosplay as fans gathered to not one but two conventions on Saturday (9 Sept) and Sunday.

At the Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre, CharaExpo 2017 saw many dressed up as their favourite anime and manga characters. The event also saw the launch of a new comic book featuring Singapore icon Mr Kiasu.

Meanwhile, at the Singapore Toys, Games & Comics Convention taking place at Marina Bay Sands, fans paid tribute to both new and classic franchises, including Star Wars and the Marvel and DC universes.

Here are some of the colourful scenes and cosplayers from both events.
