Harry Potter Festival, WI
This festival first launched in Edgerton, Wisconsin, in 2015. It got so big that organizers had to move it to Jefferson. The event celebrates the magical world of author J.K. Rowling and includes admission to venues such as live Wizards Chess, Dragon’s Alley, Serpent’s Alley, Festival Village, Quidditch Matches, and the Greenhouse. Organizers do the best they can to mimic the world of Harry Potter with fully animated patronuses and mugs of butterbeer. Visitors can ride a broomstick, search for horcruxes, put on a sorting hat, or find other things to do by checking out the Marauder’s Map.
