The story of CosOverHere

When I first moved to Europe, I didn't know anyone. I didn't know where to look for cosplay events, and when I did find one, it felt overcrowded and lonely without friends to go with.

I have been cosplaying for 15 years. Back in my home country, we used Props&Ops to follow cosplay events and plan our day around them. Here, as far as I could see, nothing like it existed yet. The event lists I did find only covered one country.

Over the years, I found a group of friends and learned a lot from them. Together we have been to events around the Nordic and Baltic countries, and I wanted one place to see all of them, so my friends and I could plan where to go next.

That is how CosOverHere started: one map and calendar for cosplay events, cosplay-friendly spots and practice places across the Nordic and Baltic region. I hope it helps other cosplayers too, especially those who are new here and still looking for their people.

What the name CosOverHere means

I wanted the name to mix cosplay and map. The Nordic and Baltic countries have the aurora, so cosplay + aurora became Cosora, and map became Atlas. CosoraAtlas was the first name, but it was long and hard to remember. So I made it shorter: cosplay + cover became CosOver, and adding Here gave us CosOverHere.
