SMASH! would appreciate attendees not turning up naked or nearly naked. We have protective goggles, but they do nothing. NO dangerous weapons. These can include:

• Bladed or edged weapons, or live steel of any kind such as knives, swords, axes, martial arts equipment, etc.
• Liquid dispensing weapons. If you need to use hairspray or aerosol cans please do so outside, as some patrons may be allergic to or irritated by the contents.
• Incendiaries or anything that produces a live flame, explosion or spark.
• Anything that shoots a projectile (this includes realistic and plastic guns).
• Long props such as poles or pointed items which might accidentally cause injury. Props that are over one metre in length may still be brought to the convention and used during the Cosplay Competition, but cannot be carried during the normal course of the convention. Instead, they will be kept in the cloakroom and returned to you when you require them.
