"Magicon was absolutely amazing and I had so much fun and made some really awesome friends as a result. The activities were perfect and we ended up staying busy the entire day which we had not expected to do. The one critique I have is that it feels as though there could have been more Harry Potter specific stalls and more stalls in general to enjoy. Additionally it seems as though a little extra preparation may have made the experience 10 times better. For a first time event specific to the theme, it went swimmingly despite the minor mishaps here and there. My hope is that when I go to the next one these mishaps have been resolved. Additionally my hope is that the staff who portrayed various characters from the books and movies played the role of those characters slightly better. They did a good job to be engaging with the audience, however, I felt that more could have been done to portray the characters themselves. I hope this makes sense. I really commend the team involved in organising the Magicon event for the outcome of the Magicon event and the amazing experience it provided. I was thoroughly impressed that a first time event of such a high popularity was conducted in such a good way despite the minor mishaps. "
