Irvin Goes to Cons

My name's Irvin, and I love going to Harry Potter conventions - I've been doing it for over ten years!  I go all out for them - cosplay, presentations, dance classes, performances, all of it!  

I have websites for all of these different things, but I thought it would be helpful to have a centralized page for each major con that I can direct people to, whether they want to relive the fun they had, or see what they missed out on.  Each con has links to photos and videos online, a list of cosplays, video of any performances or presentations I did, and anything else that seems relevant.

At the top, there are pages for each major HP convention I've attended.  In order, they are...

• Aeternitas 2011; Laconia, NH

• MISTI-Con 2013; Laconia, NH

• MISTI-Con 2015; Laconia, NH

• Leviosa 2016; Las Vegas, NV

• MISTI-Con 2017; Laconia, NH

• Leviosa 2019; Hollywood, CA

• MISTI-Con 2019; Tarrytown, NY

• CONjuration 2021; Atlanta, GA (fantasy convention, not just HP)

• CONjuration 2023; Atlanta, GA

• CONjuration 2024; Atlanta, GA 

If you would like, instead, to see a specific creative pursuit of mine, allow me to direct you to...

• My Cosplay Gallery and specifically a Summary of the costumes worn to each con

• The Art of Wizard Dance, a dance workshop I teach at most conventions

• Dumbledore: The Life and Lies, the book I've written, which I promote at conventions

Miscellany: I wrote a Guide to HP Conventions many years ago, for those jealous of all the fun I'm having here but intimidated by just how extra I am about the whole thing!  I hope to see you at a convention someday soon!

Final note: I've been to other conventions besides the ones listed here - Expeditious 2010 (Ann Arbor, MI); CONjuration 2017 (Atlanta, GA); Chestnut Hill Conference 2018 (Philadelphia, PA) among others.  For non-HP events, I go to AwesomeCon (Washington, DC) and BookCon (New York, NY) regularly.  But while I may bring a few costumes to them, and even present a thing, it's nothing like the creative blitz that I do for the cons mentioned above - those are the ones that actually need a site to enumerate all the creative endeavors that took place there!
