The Prosthetics event

  • Coventry Building Society Arena Judds Lane Coventry, England, CV6 United Kingdom (map)

As well as being used heavily in film and TV, creative prosthetics are also found in theatre, live events, cosplay, tourist attractions, casualty simulation and many more places besides. Some of the skills involved include animatronics, sculpture, mould making, hair punching, prosthetic application, painting and finishing, all of which are represented at the event.

You’ll find an abundance of skill on show on two stages, in competitions, live demos and the Monster Mash Exhibition that showcases work by various artists from Academy Award winners to recent graduates. You’ll also get to buy products and equipment from the best brands in the business and maybe win a Prize Draw of makeup FX goodies for your kit! If you’re an aspiring artist you can also apply for a place in Portfolio Surgery ; a one-to-one advice session with an experienced industry pro – apply via this website throughout the month of October.

We cater to professionals, students, hobbyists and fans alike and welcome greater numbers of young people and families each year. There is no official age restriction but under 16’s must be accompanied by an adult, and if you’re bringing a child, please refer to the FAQs for information about the content on display.
