quick little news tidbit i thought you would all enjoy before the next update about the newest feature and the next holiday prompt
“The rumored plan would be an expansion of the Wizarding World from Islands of Adventure into Universal Studios Orlando. This isn’t going to be a duplication of what we’ve already seen at all, and it really isn’t even going to be the Wizarding World either. Rather, “the new land to be build in Universal Studios Florida will actually represent the “London” side of the PotterVerse… including an entrance to the infamous Diagon Alley… Diagon Alley, as seen in the movies, is home to infamous locations such as The Leaky Cauldron, Gringott’s Wizarding Bank and the true Ollivanders wand shop location, as seen in the films. The London location is also said to be home to King’s Cross station, where students would board the Hogwarts Express train from Platform 9 ¾.”
This would allow for the crowds to not be so compressed into one tight area, and offer up ample opportunities to buy Butterbeer, wands, robes and all types of Harry Potter merchandise at another area of the resort, which means more revenue for Universal. There have also been rumors of an indoor dark roller coaster modeled after Gringotts Wizarding Bank, which would add a major attraction to the expansion, besides just more shops. But here’s the kicker for Universal. In order to get the full Harry Potter experience, you’d need to buy a two-park pass, which would allow you into both Universal Studios Orlando AND Islands of Adventure. Once again, more money for Universal. However, it’d be worth it as one possible plan to tie both Harry Potter mini-parks together is “a true recreation of the Hogwarts Express, allowing guests with two-park passes (and Universal Resort guests) to recreate the true journey from the Muggle world of London and actually board t the train for a trip over to Hogwarts and the rest of the Wizarding World at Islands of Adventure.”

All About Leaky Con Project + Group Improvements!
~winx111 (https://www.deviantart.com/winx111) Hello!
I hope your summer is going well. Now I'm guessing you know about Leaky Con and how Starkid is premiering A Very Potter Threequl there this year!! I personally can't believe that they are doing it. Like Apoclyptour, there are tons of fans who can't go and experience this event. I, myself, are one of those people. I was looking on Facebook this morning and saw that there are a lot of fans who want to do something for the people who can't go. I thought, why not create another scrapbook and reach other to even more fans this time? My idea is to reach out to people on facebook, twitter, and deviantart for submissions. Unlike
A Very Starkid Scrapbook Update
~winx111 (https://www.deviantart.com/winx111)Hello! I don't know if you remember me but I am the one who put together the scrapbook for team starkid to give to them at apocalyptour. I made a video of pictures of the scrapbook and pictures from the concert and I thought that I would note you with the link so you can make a journal about it. I would really love for all of the people who participated to see it and also expose others to it!
