Yes, you can wear the cape to the Mall. Yes, you could win $500 for it. 🦸‍♀️💸

POWER UP's Cosplay Parades are back this Friday night AND Saturday, with a $500 Voucher from JB Hi-Fi up for grabs EACH DAY. That's a lot of controllers. Or one truly excessive pair of headphones. We won't judge. (Much.)

🗓️ Fri 2 Oct: parade at 6:30pm, event 5pm–9pm
🗓️ Sat 3 Oct: parade at 2pm, event 10am–5pm
📍 Rundle Mall Plaza, Ground Floor in the Mall
🎟️ Free entry, all ages
👉 To enter: Level 2

Built your armour from scratch? Glued a wig at 2am? Have a very convincing Spider-Man point? Strut it. Kids, parents, grandparents and one extremely serious Batman are all welcome.

Not in costume? Come along to cheer, clap and take far too many photos.

Tag your cosplay crew and tell us who's walking 👇
