I'd take X-Pro1 and 18-55 lens, nice lens for wide panoramic scenes and for closeup work. If you need to get closer move your feet.

It's also a small discreet camera for candid shots.

You are looking primarily for portrait type shots at these events, and the chance to use the bigger lenses may be restricted by idiots getting in the way, so go for the smaller stuff.

As said above, most of the people in costume will be happy to pose for you. Wish I'd know this was on earlier.
