Is it only going to be Boston, or is it going on tour?

Ive wondered about this exhibition, Is it going on tour? If it is what cities are on the list? How long per city?

*breath in, breath out* SQUEEE!!!! You have no idea how glad I am that this is coming to Boston. I jumped around the house for like ten minutes. I live just outside Boston, so i can actually see this thing! So awesome! Must reserve tickets!

Ha. I just woke up my mom I was squeeing so loud! I live in southern NH, less than an hour away from Boston, and Im so excited to see the exhibit! I visited family in Chicago in late April and we left the day before it opened! I thought it might come to Boston though! :)

Hmmm... I wonder why they chose just to photograph young Potter fans. I am glad they finally hold something in New England and announce it ahead of time, though.

It looks like the exhibition is going round the USA first *signh* guess itll be a while before we Brits get it then. Ah well. It does kinda seem unfair that people in the USA get so much Harry Potttr stuff - pretty much all the wrock shows and conferences are there, its really annoying. But hey, its a bigger country, so I guess its only to be expected =D

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-23 11:10:35

i hope it comes to miami soon!! ahhhh and whats with all of the asian kids? lol

I traveled to Chicago to see the Exhibit and I can assure you that if you are a true fan you will thoroughly enjoy it. I spent three hours going over it again and again. It offers so much and makes it easy to see why movies cost so much to make. The artists and craftspersons who conceive and execute the sets, costumes, props, model makers et al are truly gifted. Take the time to REALLY look at the detail in each one of these completely realistic looking items. It was fabulous and I cant say enough about it. I would go again at the drop of a hat. Make sure you talk to the people working inside the Exhibit as well. They are extremely nice and full of all kinds of info they are happy to share with the REAL fan.

Thank you HDMSTRSNAPE! I will definitely be going more than once (I live about an hour south of Boston) and I will take your advice. I love the behind-the-scenes work that goes into films and it sounds like its going to be amazing. Thanks again!

I do not live near to Chicago, but if I can go there I will go and see the exposition. But those any one knows if the exposition will come to California and when.
