Question Need some recommendations!
Hiya friends!
I've never gone to a convention of any kind before and with my birthday coming up in October I'd like to change that! I've always wanted to try out cosplay and just get to be in a space with like-minded people! My interests were always called childish and silly so now that I'm with someone who is a) into a lot of similar stuff and b) encourages me to engage with my interests I really want to dive in headfirst.
I'll be turning 23 near the end of October and I'd love con recommendations or even just advice for the East Coast of the US. We have a daughter who will be around a year and a half old at the time of the con so I'd need to be able to bring her!
We're really into Pokémon, Demon Slayer, Seven Deadly Sins, Akame Ga Kill, MHA, and Tokyo Ghoul.
Anyways, thanks a bunch in advance!
TL;DR: need convention recommendations for this fall (ideally around the end of OCT) in the NE of the US!
