We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: Harry Potter isn’t just for kids. And if you needed more proof, enter the upcoming PotterCon’s “PotterParty” on June 3 at the House of Blues.

The adults-only gathering mixes day-drinking—Firewhisky, anybody?—with all things wizard.

If you’re ready to have a quarter- or mid-life crisis, take part in a sorting ceremony and come to terms with the fact that you might actually be a Hufflepuff and not a Slytherin. Then, flaunt your robes in the Madam Malkin’s costume content.

If you’re set in your sorted ways, make Hermione proud by dominating trivia or heading to a potions class. When you’re done showing off your smarts, try your hand at Muggle Quidditch or learn the ropes of wizards’ chess.

“Early owl” pre-sale tickets go on sale on LiveNation.com at 10 a.m. on Thursday, April 20 with the general sale beginning at 10 a.m. on Friday, April 21. Spike the Butterbeer and go manage some mischief.
