Those in attendance were able to spot some instantly recognisable faces, including tributes to Batman and Spider-Man, alongside towering Transformers cosplayers that proved a hit with the crowds.
There was also a standout performance from a Kpop tribute, which has skyrocketed in popularity with young fans.
The women performed the award-winning song 'Golden' from the movie soundtrack, which had families dancing and singing along.

Many took the chance to grab photos, with fun meet-and-greet moments.
Live performances and sing-alongs added to the atmosphere, with music carrying across the shopping centre and drawing in shoppers as they passed through. Even those who hadn’t planned to attend seemed to get caught up in it.
Ahead of the event, organisers said they hoped to create “an unforgettable experience for all ages, children and adults alike,” with a day full of “fun, surprises, memorable moments and incredible photo opportunities for the whole family.”
Judging by the turnout, it’s fair to say that’s exactly what was delivered.
