I took my kids to the Tokyo studio tour. It's just awesome. It could so easily be cheesy or artificial! But they made it really interesting as well as fun.

Around ten years ago (I feel old now, lol) I went to a HP-themed summer camp where we got sorted, played quidditch, took Hogwarts classes, everything! It was so fun

My Harry Potter club in high school had a Muggle Quidditch league and i thought it was soooo much fun.

I haven't had the pleasure of at least half the experiences listed.

To be honest, I'd have to go with re-watching the films and re-reading the books though I did go to the Barns & Noble release parties for OotP through DH and that was pretty hype.

Difficult:

The wife still hears the audio books once in a while to sleep.
I played two one-shots as a game master with an improvised Auror RPG at a role play convention.
Watching the movies with my wife is still great.
Hogwarts Legacy is a real nice game, altough they fumbled the ban of the unforgettable curses.

My family and I went to Harry Potter exhibitions. I had fun casting magic at the magical forest, which looked wicked cool. I visited Diagon Alley, where I got a green white scarf and chocolate frogs and wand and poster. I played Quidditch, with throwing balls through hoops, which was fun. <3

Hmm, I loved talking about Harry Potter with my friends as we sat down for lunch at school back then. We spoke about the funny AVPM musical, the guy playing Draco being very sassy and cute, and talked about our favourite characters, pairings, and scenes in Harry Potter. My friend liked Harry/Hermione together, I guessing her fave pairing right -- I remembering a beautiful scene of them dancing together in tent in the movie.

This might sound lame but drinking butterball on Halloween and Harry potter day is my favorite.

Although this makes me feel old, but the midnight launches were the best memories for me, cause you actually had to wait to see what happens next in the new book, plus you were able to say 'I was the fourth person to get the book at Walmart!' It was a great experience knowing that you waited so long to get the book and you were the 1st or 4th person to get the book in your city. Plus the parties were so much fun, from sorting to drinking butterbeer it was my childhood memories I cherish the most.
