These event usually last for 3 days where there is a chance that you could meet your favorite actors/actresses and find out the latest news about your favorite television series or movies. It is also a place where you can dressed up or “cosplay” during the entire event. It is like having Halloween all under one roof! They even have costume contests where you can show off your best costume and win prizes depending on which con you attend.

With Disney’s D23 Expo that just ended and Comic Con just around the corner (July 20 – 23, 2017), it is never too late to feel inspired or prepared for your wheelchair costume. Below are some wheelchair costumes ideas to prep for your current or future wheelchair costumes:

Your wheelchair is the perfect object to turn into a throne! You can dressed up to become your favorite characters from the television series and pretendthat you (or the character) has claim the throne.

Doctor Who – The Tardis, Dalek

This will allow the wheelchair to be disguised or give it a  new shape. You can dress up as your favorite Doctor or become an actual moving robot.

 

Star Wars – X Wing Fighter, Tie Fighter

Isn’t it everyone’s dream to fly one of the Star Wars’ flying space craft? This is your chance to decorate your wheelchair to turn it into a flying space craft and show which Star Wars’ clan you are representing.

 

Disney – Pirate ship (for Captain Hook), Cars, Cinderella Carriage (for Cinderella), Tron Vehicle

Do you always want to be a character from the Disney’s franchises? Instead of being just Captain Hook, you can make your idea become more creative by creating his ship so it will look like you are sailing it. This also applies for Cinderella and the characters from Tron as well. Turn your wheelchair in to the vehicle that your Disney character uses.
