Unfortunately we have to inform you that the Karaoke Competition is now full. All the available slots for entries have been filled. All newly received entries will be put on a backup list from this point on. This means that if you want to compete in the competition you have to wait till one of those slots become available.

Visual Kei artist Kaya will perform at Abunai!

7th of June 2013

Kaya started as a vocalist of the band Swarz Stein. In 2006 he officially debuted as a solo artist.
Although Kaya is known as a Visuel Kei artist, he has not limited himself to a band style. His concerts incorporate supplemental show elements like dancers and drag queens. We are proud to let you all know that Kaya will perform at Abunai! this year on Saturday evening August 24th. We hope to see you all during the concert of Kaya the gothic lolita fashion icon!

Tickets are available through: http://registration.abunaicon.nl
€5 for Abunai! ticket holders

Cosplay Fashion Show sign-ups are now CLOSED!

6th of June 2013

Yes, you read correctly. A month and ten days ahead of time we regretfully have to announce you can no longer apply for a spot at the CFS. We have so many applications already we can not accept more.

There is a little light shining through the darkness though. The Eurocos preliminaries still have some spots available. Also we encourage people currently signed up for the fashion show to switch to the Eurocos preliminaries if they think they have what it takes to compete at that level and of course if their entry meets the additional requirements.

Another opportunity might be to sign-up with an act for the Cosplay Act Competition. For that event there are still spots available as well. In other words, if you wanted to sign-up for the CFS, don't let this little snag kill your fun competing at our convention and try something (even more) creative.

Email problems (ticket registrations)

27th of May 2013

Due to unexpected maintenance and a technical alteration at our hosting provider our ticket registration system was unable to send emails from Wednesday May 22nd till Sunday May 26th. This includes registrations, hotel room confirmations and order info, but password reminders as well. Unfortunately news of this issue reached us only this weekend.

The email process is now working again. If you've missed any confirmation e-mails from the registration system, you can always resend these by signing in to the registration and using the available functions. If you made an account but haven't received the confirmation e-mail yet, please use the Re-send validation page.

Should you have any questions about this, feel free to contact us using our contact form.
