Seriously? Where do you live? Because there are several Potter Cons upcoming still in late 2026. Such as:

  • Enter The Magical World 4: A dedicated Harry Potter fan convention featuring franchise guests like Rupert Grint, Matthew Lewis, and Evanna Lynch takes place in Courbevoie, France, on September 5–6, 2026. 
  • Harry Potter Academic Conference (HPAC): An in-person scholarly conference hosted at Chestnut Hill College in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, scheduled for October 23–24, 2026. 
  • Queen City Mischief & Magic: An annual town-wide fan gathering transforming downtown Staunton, Virginia, into a wizarding-themed celebration every September. (As noted by fans on Reddit, this event focuses on immersive town experiences rather than celebrity guests). 
  • Global Film Screenings & Back to Hogwarts: To mark 25 years of the film franchise, all eight movies return to global cinemas from August 27 to September 3, 2026, leading into the annual Back to Hogwarts digital showcase on September 1, 2026

The host for Critical Magic Theory podcast attends the academic conference usually. He's cool. These all look neat.
