To participate in the selection for the 2025 edition, you will need an active account on this site and complete the application form, available from November 9, 2024.
The Volta event exists thanks to the participation and collaboration of the municipalities of
Volta Mantovana, Cavriana, Ponti sul Mincio and Monzambano.
The Volta, in a nutshell
The Volta is not a convention. Volta is an event dedicated to cosplay photography!
The Volta, now in its eighth edition, is the event born in 2017 thanks to the idea and determination of Marco Tramonte, with the aim of enhancing the talent of photographers and cosplayers. This annual event is now globally recognized and attracts participants from all over the world, creating a unique environment where passion, creativity and fun come together.
Volta exists thanks to the collaboration of the municipalities of Volta Mantovana, Cavriana, Ponti sul Mincio and Monzambano, which provide exclusive and evocative locations. These locations, for the duration of the event, are transformed into perfect settings for bringing photographic and creative works to life, allowing participants to express their talents to the fullest.
In addition to being a landmark event for cosplay and photography, The Vault is also an opportunity for sociability and sharing. Three days immersed in creativity, enriched by moments of fun and interaction among participants who share the same passion, all in an atmosphere of serenity and respect.
Nonostante la crescente popolarità, Il Volta mantiene un numero limitato di partecipanti, garantendo così un’esperienza di alta qualità per tutti coloro che vi prendono parte, e consentendo a ciascun partecipante di vivere appieno l’atmosfera e la magia di questo evento unico.
Every year something new
Our commitment: to improve and renew with each edition.
With each edition, we strive harder and harder to ensure that every piece of information, communication and news is clear and reaches participants, onlookers and enthusiasts.
The nature of the event leads to new things being introduced every year, and it is precisely this constant evolution that is the beauty of the Volta: it is impossible to get bored. One of the key aspects we focus on is the continuous search for new and extraordinary locations that can become theaters of creativity for cosplayers and photographers. Every year we are passionately dedicated to finding and providing exclusive and different locations, allowing participants to explore ever new settings in which to unleash their imagination.
The availability of unique and diverse locations is among Volta’s priorities, along with the enjoyment and satisfaction of participants: luxurious villas, abandoned factories, forests, prairies, gardens. During the days of Volta, these spaces are transformed into picturesque settings where each participant can express his or her creativity to the fullest. It is thanks to the cooperation of the municipalities that all this is possible, and it is to them that we offer our gratitude, our cheerfulness and also our social content.
The organization provides selected participants with contact details of a network of recommended accommodations, hotels and B&Bs, where they can stay for the duration of the event and best enjoy the unique experience that only the Volta can offer photographers, cosplayers and assistants.
