PUBLIC COSTUME CONTEST RULES & DETAILS

SIGN UP FOR A CHANCE TO WIN UP TO $200 AND HIGHBALL FAME

Each category winner receives $100

HOW IT WORKS

Costume Contest Coordinators will conduct preliminary judging of each entrant to determine contest participation, as well as placement into a specific category.

• Costumes should be attention-capturing and scream excitement, artistry, and imagination
• Costumes should be creative, well-executed, bold, and visually stunning
• Costumes must fit within one of the costume categories
• Costumes that are too minimalist, offensive, vulgar, and/or store-bought will not be permitted entrance

Signups will occur until 7:45 PM. Accepted entrants must complete a Google Form to receive a Contestant wristband. Once completed, Contestants are free to enjoy the festivities. 

At 7:45 PM, approved contestants must report to the Public Costume Contest Staging Area.

*No more than 20 contestants for each individual category. No more than 10 contestants within each Squad Goals group, and no more than 15 Squad Goals groups will be selected to participate in Squad Goals.

Prizes for each category are $100 checks, to be sent via regular mail, or available for pickup at the Short North Alliance office, on or about 11/06/2023. Prize checks not claimed by 11/31/23 will be forfeited.
