Dragon Con's costume parade through downtown Atlanta on Labor Day weekend is genuinely one of the best free spectacles in American pop culture - tens of thousands of cosplayers marching past crowds of onlookers before the convention proper even starts. Inside, it's five days of programming across a dozen hotels, but the parade is the moment that captures why this convention feels more like a festival than a trade show.
