We've extended our $200 rate for a Full Registration through CyberMonday (November 28), so your Ascendio registration can be a great kick-off to the holiday season! The $200 rate is the same as the price we charged for a full registration to Infinitus, the amazing Harry Potter fan event we hosted in Orlando back in July of 2010. There's more info on our website at http://www.hp2012.org and on our Twitter (http://www.twitter.com/HPEF) or Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/Ascendio2012). Remember what's included in a Full registration for Ascendio: Two fantastic feasts Three days of formal and informal programming and meet-ups All author readings and signings Admission to the Common Room, Art Gallery, Vendor Room, Craft Faire, Auction and Courtyard Pickup Quidditch The Afterparty at Malfoy Manor Ball (which we may come up with a better name for) Showings of fanfilms, fanvids and some Harry Potter movies Podcasts, workshops, drabble and drawble challenges The Fashion Show on Saturday evening Wrock concerts on Thursday (and acoustic wrock concerts throughout the weekend) The ability to purchase a ticket to Night of a Thousand Wizards 2 (when they go on sale) And lots more! Basically, this means that the cost of a Full registration is the same as you'd pay for a daypass for Thursday, Friday and Saturday, but since it's a Full registration, you also get to go to two amazing feasts at the Portofino Bay resort - one brunch on Friday, and one brunch on Sunday. And that, in turn, helps you keep to what we're calling Ascendio Arithmancy, where we suggest that every day, you have: Five hours of sleep Four panels or presentations Three meals (or substantial snacks) Two bottles of water One shower! Just for comparison, a Thursday-only registration (that's our Wrock and Meet-Ups day) is $50, and registration for Friday *or* Saturday is $75 per day. Hope to see you in Orlando next summer!
