JOIN HP FANTRIPS™ FOR MAGIC IN THE MOUNTAINS
WITH HP QUIDDITCH STAR STAN YANEVSKI
Have you always wanted to experience the magical wizarding world of Harry Potter, but didn’t want to travel all the way to the UK? Now you don’t have to! HP Fan Trips™ is excited to announce its FIRST EVER Harry Potter event right here in the Colorado Rockies! Join us in Colorado Springs for a magical evening March 19, 2016, for EXCLUSIVE ACCESS to Glen Eyrie castle and a “Hogwarts”-themed banquet. Become enchanted with award-winning magician and comedian Nick Paul, take photos with a special Harry Potter actor, and feast like a witch or wizard on Harry Potter inspired cuisine – all for only $199! This event is limited to a select number of fans to ensure an intimate experience.

HP Fantrips™ is also throwing a pajama party at Glen Eyrie Castle after the banquet. You won't want to miss this. See below for more details.
Stanislav Yanevski, the actor portraying Victor Krum, the Bulgarian student from the fictional school Durmstrang who competes in the TwiWizard Tournament in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, will be on hand to discuss his role in bringing part of this modern legend to life. There are many challenges to turning imagination into “reality”, or at least into film reality – guests will have chance to ask “how did they do it” straight from Stan himself.

Visit with Stan Yanevski who portrayed Viktor Krum in HP and the Goblet of Fire including
Q&A session
Photo with Stan (one per person)
Autograph by Stan (one per person)
Performance by comedian/magician Nick Paul

Glen Eyrie Castle
Glen Eyrie Castle FoyerGlen Eyrie is an English Tudor-style castle built by General William Jackson Palmer, the founder of Colorado Springs.
This house was his dream home and is near Colorado Springs in the northwest foothills north of the Garden of the Gods rock formations (now a city park). After building a large carriage house, where the family lived for a time, Palmer and his wife Mary (Queen) Mellen built a 22-room frame house on the 800-acre (3.2 km2) estate. This house was remodeled in 1881 to include a tower and additional rooms, and made to resemble a stone castle, reminiscent of those native to England. The castle was advanced for its time, featuring a primitive intercom system, and a chimney system that would hold the smoke until the wind was blowing in the right direction to take the smoke out of the valley. Glen Eyrie is on the National Register of Historic Places.
