But this event isn’t just about the photos—it’s also about people! Over the past 12 years, Atlanta's Hair of the Dragon has become a gathering place where cosplayers can mingle, network, and form lasting friendships. With numerous dressing rooms on-site, you can switch between different cosplays throughout the day, giving you the chance to work with both roaming photographers and “featured” photographers who have set up in various studios around the expansive Studio Space Atlanta—a 20,000+ sq. ft. venue. The event offers a variety of opportunities to connect with fellow cosplayers in a relaxed, no-pressure environment.
Many friendships have blossomed from this event, making it just as much about community as it is about creating stunning photos. It’s one of the special aspects that sets this "Halfway" to the Dragon gathering apart and makes it an event cosplayers look forward to year after year.
In addition to the fun and camaraderie, Hair of the Dragon also serves as the perfect “halfway point” to the annual Dragon Con. Aptly dubbed a “Halfway to the Dragon” event, it’s the ideal way to get into the cosplay spirit months before the big con while enjoying a laid-back, vendor-free atmosphere. No panels, no celebrities—just a great time to focus on what really matters: your cosplay and your fellow fans.
Join us for a night filled with creativity, new connections, and unforgettable photos. Whether you’re looking to make lasting memories, upgrade your cosplay portfolio, or just enjoy a fun, safe, and welcoming environment, Hair of the Dragon is the event for you!
