Today, April 27th 2016, City of Heroes would be 12 years old. Cool stuff, right?

Tomorrow, April 28th, however, there will be a daylong event in Atlas Park for those of us with Paragon Chat installed.

Starting at 3:00 PM EST, and lasting past 10:30 EST, the event will feature live music from TheCape Radio, trivia contests, and costume contests every hour. Come join the fun!

Costume contests will be divided into 4 major groupings, with first, second, and third place winners from each of these primary groupings being invited back for the final contest taking place at 10:00 PM EST. Several other contests with less strict themes will be held after the first four primary contests.

Some details and times for the contests are as follows:

Golden Age- 12PM Pacific/3PM Eastern - Late 1930's to early 1950's Super Heroes.
Marvel Examples: Captain America, Human Torch, Submariner
DC Examples: Batman & Robin, Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash
