I have been to universal studios in Japan and experienced the wizarding world of harry potter, which was a great experience. I believe you will also have the chance to become a magician in Hogwarts school.

I haven’t had much of a chance to get involved with any HP events, but rest assured that going to the Wizarding World attraction in Orlando is most definitely on my bucket list.

I cried the 1st time I went to the Wizarding World at Universal, this was back in 2015. I also had the annual pass in 2017. Besides that, I enjoy re-reading the books and re-watching the movies at home with my hubby.

There was nothing that could ever compare to the feeling of queuing at midnight and rushing home to get cracking on a book! <3

Meeting Tom Felton in real life as part of the last movie events. As a Slytherin, he's Draco Malfoy!!! As an HP fan, I've always loved how humble and sweet he was so meeting and seeing him in real life was just mind-blowing

In grade 8, I went to the midnight premier of Harry potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and my two friends at the time and I dressed up with our time turners, made headbands with the sorting hat on it and were so excited. When the movie ended, all three of us had tears falling because it was so beautiful and I just remember it being such an unforgettable night.

It’s so hard to choose- I’ve been to Harry Potter world in Orlando and loved it but I also just recently went on the Harry Potter studio tour where they were having an exhibit on the goblet of fire and I thought that was really cool- tbh anything Harry Potter related is just magical

My best one so far has been when I went to the Deathly Hallows book release and there was an amazing HP themed party throughout the entire store. Everyone was dressed up and we made our own wands and there were prizes given out. It was amazing, it’s something I’ll never forget!

Default The movies

I have all of the Harry Potter movies on DVD... but watching them on tv is still thrilling.... This happens every time there's a marathon on. So many great moments, and things not noticed before.... Still think Luna steals every scene.

I went to the Wizarding World at Universal Studios mere days before Alan Rickman passed away. Because of Harry Potter, he became one of my all-time favorite actors. The only reason I like Snape is because Alan played him. I even bought Snape's wand when I was there. I went with my mom, sister, and her husband and son. It was just such a special day and one of the best of my life.

I didn't get to experience the midnight book releases (both because I'm sure they didn't happen where I'm from and because DH came out when I was 11), but there's something so magical and beautiful about people gathering for a book. It blows my mind that it was an actual thing that happened. I wish I could've experienced one myself!

The book launches for sure. I went to two bookstore events for the Cursed Child release, one before to hype up the book, and one on the night the book was released. I remember drinking a Butterbeer latte that was delicious and going to the event with my friends.

I really really love Muggle Quidditch. I played two years of it in college and it was a lot of fun! I was a Beater both years, and it is so much fun to play!!

I once watched five harry porter movies non-stop from Sunday afternoon. It was quite interesting, especially due to the chronology of events.

My favorite Harry Potter experience so far was visiting the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Orlando.

I really love going through the movies and books after a while and re-experiencing everything. It's also fun to try and introduce them to family and friends.

Universal Studios was fabulous. I thought it wouldn't be true once I got there, but everything was just like I imagined. The Hogwarts castle was amazing and Hogsmead and Diagon Alley were astonishing with every detail.

Items I’ve collected over the years from the Wizarding World and the joy I get out of being able to use them. Probably my complete Slytherin outfit and items from the Noble Collection are my favourites. Oh and can’t forget the movie marathons (that I own) my most recent one was when Sky was showing Harry Potter non stop a few weeks ago.
