The World Cosplay Summit French selections won't be taking place in 2022 due to the COVID situation.

And don’t forget that cosplay is also an amateur activity: everyone can try it and walk down the alleys of the festival to let every attendee enjoy their talent, and pose for photographers! Workshops are also organized by associations for amateur cosplayers who want to learn the basics.
