Cosplay is welcome at the Phaidei cafe, so feel free to come dressed as your favorite character. However, props must be small and easy to manage within the venue.

Oversized weapons, large wings, and other bulky items are not permitted due to limited space. Visitors carrying large props may be asked to remove them or could be denied entry without a refund.

There is no strict dress code, but all attire must remain appropriate. NSFW outfits are not allowed, and overly revealing clothing such as bikinis or BDSM-related wear will result in denied entry without a refund.

Can you bring freebies or trades?

Freebies, gifts, and trades are allowed as part of the fan experience. However, items must not include plagiarized or stolen artwork, official copyrighted assets, NSFW content, or any illegal material.

Overall it’s important to note that this is a fan-made project and is not affiliated with HoYoverse, miHoYo, or the official Honkai Star Rail.
