Due to popular demand, Accio is pleased to announce that on Saturday 
30th July it will be opening its doors to all interested adults.

Day tickets for Accio will be valid from 9am to 6pm.  During this 
time, you will be able to join the conference and therefore have the 
opportunity to listen to presentations, pester panelists, and talk 
about Harry Potter with other like-minded people.

Included in the £75 admission fee will be the Accio welcome pack, a 
CD copy of the conference proceedings together with mid-morning and 
afternoon tea and coffee and a sandwich lunch.  

Day members may also wish to stay for the Feast.  Please direct all
