CosMeet 2025 kicked off last weekend with its fall-tastic celebrations of anime, cosplay, and everything fandom at the prestigious five-star Okada Manila hotel in New Seaside Drive, Entertainment City, Parañaque City.
Continuing its lavish style from last year, the event this time took place at the Crystal Pavilion, which had a beautiful view of The Fountain through its clear glass walls. The high ceilings, natural sunlight, (cool aircon), and the overall refreshing ambiance make for a spectacular venue — it truly felt magical, fun, and fancy. For a free event, CosMeet 2025 delivered an amazing and unique convention experience. The vibes were pretty cool!
CosMeet 2025 was exploding with enthusiasm. It featured a lively stage with all the exciting programs and games, and a beautiful hallway with over 100 booths. We discovered rare gacha finds (I found some really cute Apothecary figures), authentic figures and merchandise, and some amazing fan-made anime T-shirts and bags. Other than shopping, the other con-goers simply came to meet friends, watch the show, and just enjoy the moment.
Of course, the highlight of the event is the cosplayers who passionately strut their OOTDs across the Crystal Pavilion. The venue made the overall anime and cosplay experience truly unforgettable, especially with the photos turning out really good. Check out the awesome cosplayers we spotted:
And that’s all for our coverage of CosMeet 2025 at Okada Manila. As October comes to a close, we can look back fondly while moving forward feeling inspired to stay passionate about the things we love: our hobbies, interests, and our connections.
The next event by Cosplay.ph is the year-ender, Cosplay Matsuri, happening from December 28-30, 2025, at the SMX Convention Center. For more information, visit the Cosplay Mania Facebook page. See you there!
