Conventions??

have someone make a Wizard/Witch outfit for you. Some of the college 
age folks dress as Hogwarts students, us older ones as other 
characters, or one of the Professors. The conferences can be rather 
expensive with the transportation, but worth every penny. The 
presentation are great, and there is so much going on, something for 
everyone.

Tiffany:

I've never been to a Portus or Terminus convention, but have been to 3 
HP conventions; all here in the Twin Cities area.  I dressed up as a 
character every single time & have always worn a costume to each one I 
went to.  I don't recall the prices, but they can be a bit on the 
expensive side.  I found some wonderful stuff there also, like rare HP 
toys & posters, as well as several copies of the canonical books 
themselves.  Most books were fan fiction, but saw a lot of HP books in 
foreign languages, some in Braille or Audio CD also.
