Alohomora: Attendance

 

If you have found yourself spellbound by wizards, witches, incantations and owls, you’ll want to join us at the Spellbound Festival.  You’ll be in good company with a group of like-minded fans and scholars who are under the same magic spell! The Spellbound Festival brings together the best of Harry Potter educational activities and Harry Potter fun.

This all-ages, family festival is the best of Harry Potter “Edu-tainment” right here at St. Bonaventure. There will be presentation and panel discussions led by fans and scholars in a wide range of topics and diciplines. (Anyone with an interest in submitting work to the Program Committee can do so here.)

If you would rather join us to listen and play, there will be plenty of options to choose from!

♦ Attendees may visit any of the presentation, panels or roundtable discussions held throughout the event. (All presentations, panels and roundtable discussions are free of charge to attend.)

♦ Participants can book a weekend stay at the St. Bonaventure version of the Hogwarts Houses. We’re transforming our townhouses into Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin and, of course we have a Sorting Hat to place everyone in the correct house! The House guests will enjoy the entire event and the most immersive experience we offer!

♦ There will be Grand Feasts in our “Great Hall” on Friday and Saturday evening. The feast will be held in The Hickey Dining Hall, a magnificent space which lends to the feel of the Great Hall!

♦ Hogwarts Style Classes will be offered featuring subjects like Potions, Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts and more!

♦ Guests may shop for “magical goods” at the Spellbound Festival’s Diagon Alley.  (Vendors may rent a booth space here.)

♦ Activities and entertainment will be conjured throughout the weekend. We are planning horcrux hunts in the dark forest, Quidditch practices and games, Live Wizards Chess, and a menagerie of magical activities for all attendees to enjoy.

Tickets may be purchased in person only at the Spellbound Concierge desk (Regina A. Quick Center atrium)
