Here's why these costumed 'cosplayers' love what they do

Kelowna's cosplay community out in full force for yearly convention

You may spot a Stormtrooper, some nymphs, or other curiously amazing characters downtown this weekend.

It comes as the Kelowna Fan Experience (KFX) is in full swing, and costumed 'cosplayers' are among those attending the various panels and exhibitions.

With a wide range of intricate costume work from superheroes to video game characters, we wanted to know ... what do they love about it all?

From the craft to the community, there is certainly a lot to love, and with the convention continuing on for one final day on July 16, there is still a chance to get in on the pop culture fun.

More information about KFX can be found on their website here.

Check out the video to see all the incredible cosplays!
