Let’s face it; you’re still Snape-ing. The last book in the Harry Potter series has been released, and the story of The Boy Who Lived has finally come to an end, but for some reason you’re can’t stop thinking about that snarky Potions Professor with the billowing robes and the hooked nose. Don’t worry because there are plenty of other depraved lunatics out there who also can’t get enough of the Greasy Git. This year, we’re all going to meet up one last time to Snape together in honor of the Professor and his premature journey beyond the veil. Snapecast , the podcast that’s known for being “all Snape all the time” has partnered with HPEF to bring you the very first Snape-centric convention: SnapeFest.

SnapeFest will take place on July 9, 2008 (the Professor’s half birthday) in Dallas, Texas at the Hilton Anatole .  Formal programming will include  presentations, roundtable discussions, panels, trivia contests, competitions, displays of fan art and videos, costume fashion shows and much more. Afterwards, SnapeFest attendees are welcome to attend a candlelight vigil for Professor Snape held outside the Hilton Anatole and a dinner at a nearby restaurant.

This one day conference will be free to all Portus attendees; however space is limited to 50 Snape fans and you must be over 21 years of age to attend. Registration will be open on the January 9, 2008 and will be on a first come first serve basis. Please see our FAQ for details.

We hope to see you in Dallas in July and until then Happy Snape-ing!
