There’s a Harry Potter convention happening this year and we need to go

Accio tickets!

Plz.

We’ve had Harry Potter movies. We’ve had Harry Potter merchandise. We’ve had Harry Potter theme parks.

What else could we possibly need, really?

A Harry Potter convention where fans can meet actors and attend Diagon Alley and go to Q&As – that’s what.

How lucky for us all then that Manchester’s The Printworks is hosting Harry Potter con this July and October and it sounds totally and unequivocally magical.

DiagCon (yes, that is what it’s called) will allow fans to get photos and autographs from their favourite Harry Potter actors, go to mini-exhibitions, eat a lot of Potter-themed food and drink, and trade some tradable items in Diagon Alley.

The convention runs on July 21 and 22 and October 27 and 28 and unfortunately, tickets for all of these dates are currently sold out.

Unsurprising really, it’s Harry Potter con.

However, organisers have said that fans can sign up the event’s newsletter to receive up-to-date information on all things Harry Potter con so we remain hopeful that more dates will be added due to popular demand.

Tickets for DiagCon cost £14.

Now we just need them to add more.
