The countdown is officially on. If your calendar isn’t already marked for July 5th, 2026, drop whatever you are doing and fix that right now. COSMIC is descending upon Long Acres in Guwahati, Assam, and it is shaping up to be the ultimate nerd pilgrimage of the season.

Billed under the banner of “One Universe, Three Fandoms, Zero Limits,” this event is smashing together the absolute best of cosplay, K-pop, and—yes, you read that correctly—classic Beyblade nostalgia.The mastermind behind this epic crossover is D.Yuki Hive (@d.yuki_hive), who is pulling out all the stops to bring this massive vision to life.

As the official Gift Partner for the event, we at Creative Souls, Shillong are packing up some of our absolute finest anime merchandise to fuel the prize pool. We are teaming up alongside awesome communities like the Diphu Anime Community, Desicomix, and Daebakshelf to make sure the winners walk away with legendary hauls.

Now, full disclosure: the Creative Souls team won’t be setting up a physical booth at the venue this time around because we unfortunately can’t make the trip down to Guwahati. But don’t worry—you don’t have to miss out on the good stuff. If you see something in the prize pool you absolutely love, or if you just want to update your own collection, you can slide directly into our Instagram DMs (@creativesouls.in) to place your merch orders.

Here is a frank breakdown of what is going down and why you need to secure your spot before you get hit with major FOMO.

The Main Stages: Glory, Dance, and Metal Clashing

This isn’t just a casual meet-and-greet; people are coming to compete. The tournament and championship tracks are stacked:

The Cosmic Cosplay Championship: The regional cosplay scene has been leveling up rapidly, and this stage is going to be proof. Whether you are debuting a massive armored build or showing off a perfectly styled wig, the stakes are high. To keep things entirely fair and elite, the competition will be judged by Shiro, an absolute powerhouse from Nagaland who holds titles as the Annual Naj Cosfest 2024 Winner and the Naj Winter Fest 2024 Winner. If anyone knows what it takes to dominate a stage, it is her.
Cosmic K-Pop Dance Competition: Prepare for synchronized choreo, insane energy, and zero room for error. Judging this battleground is Payang Misso, a member of the renowned dance group THE TREND. As an All India K-Pop Contest runner-up and a Quarter Finalist from Dance+ Pro Season 7, he will be looking for pristine technique and undeniable stage presence.
Cosmic Beyblade Tournament: Let it rip. Seriously. A dedicated tournament to find the ultimate Blader. It is fast, loud, deeply nostalgic, and wildly intense.

Beyond the Main Stage: Maid Cafes, Treasure Hunts, and More

If you aren’t competing, the floor is still packed with things to do. The event organizers have filled the venue with side attractions designed to keep you busy from 10 AM to 7 PM.

CosMic Maid & Butler Contest: A staple of classic pop-culture event culture, bringing maximum charm to the venue.
CosMic Treasure Hunt & Arcade: For those who prefer their fun interactive, there are plenty of puzzles and games to conquer.
Stall Star Contest: The variety stalls and booths aren’t just selling cool gear ; they are actively competing for titles like Best Decorated Stall, Most Innovative Product, and Best Customer Service.
360° Camera Booth: Because if you didn’t get high-quality video proof of your outfit or your haul, did you even go to a con?
