GalaxyCon Nashville 2026 Cosplay Photos

GalaxyCon Nashville 2026 ran from Friday, May 29 through Sunday, May 31, 2026, at The Fairgrounds Nashville in Tennessee. This 3-day “Festival of Fandom brought together fans of all genres and media. From comic books to gaming they all got together to celebrate, share their enjoyment, get autographs and hang out.

The celebrity guest list spanned several franchises including some of the biggest such as Marvel, DC, Star Trek, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Star Wars. They even had the legendary Cassandra Peterson, best known as Elvira, there for photo ops, signatures and a panel. If Anime was more your thing they had a stellar line up of voice actors. They even hosted a My Hero Academia panel featuring David Matranga, Chris Wehkamp, Kyle Phillis, Brittney Karbowski, Tia Ballard and more.

The exhibit hall was a highlight for fans of Indy comics and original art. It was jam packed with independent illustrators, comic book writers, printmakers, and crafters. It was the perfect place to buy signed prints, custom sketches, indie comic books, and hand-crafted art.

Of course for us the highlight is always the cosplay, that is where we feel that the true love of the arts shines. This is when people show their talents and general enjoyment of any media from comics to movies, games to novels And it’s not just cannon material, cosplay is where people can let their imagination run wild – they mash them up, gender flip, create ideal ‘what if’ scenarios and just have fun.

Thanks to Movement Radio we get to see some of the great cosplay that was on display at GalaxyCon Nashville. Movement Radio is a vodcast that covers a lot of our favorite things such as interviews with voice actors & entertainment pros, toy reviews, unboxings, reactions, comic/manga reviews, and they cover pop culture conventions.
