It's a bit far away, but there's also GenCon. It's listed as a Gaming Convention, but anime and 'costume competitions' are listed under 'What Is Gen Con?'

I made the zombie march randomly, i had a starlight foundation charity event with the 501st and i had a set of stormtrooper armour. So i got some friends to zombie up my face and i was the Stormtrooper Zombie....
Look, PICS!
