(MENAFN- Swissinfo) Polymanga, one of Switzerland's largest events for pop culture, video games and manga, has celebrated its 15th edition in Montreux.
Attracting some 42,000 visitors last year, the four-day party was set to come to a colourful close on Monday.
In addition to concerts, film screenings, gaming tournaments and karaoke, fans at Polymangaexternal link could also show off their creativity in the cosplay events. In cosplay, fans dress up in the costumes of well-known – or niche – characters from pop culture, especially the world of comics.
