Magic! Dark Art Fair Announced For This Weekend in Illinois

If you grew up on the Harry Potter books and movies, this is a can't miss event.

Kicking off this Friday at Replay Lincoln Park, the Dark Art Fair is the ultimate theme weekend for muggles and wizards everywhere.

I've read nearly all the books, watched all the movies, so I guess you can say I'm a fan of the "wizarding world" of Harry Potter.

You can say the same about Replay Lincoln Park. They've been holding Harry Potter-esque events all winter, called A Very Harry Winter.

So it makes sense they'd bust out the cauldrons one more time and offer up a massive weekend devoted to the dark arts.

Replay Lincoln Park:

Come join us as we celebrate the last weekend of A Very Harry Winter with a Dark Art Fair featuring original art from our pop-up artists and local craftsman!

There's also live music by Olivia Love on Saturday and then a Harry Potter costume contest on Sunday.

One small issue though for families considering the trek to Replay Lincoln Park for the Dark Arts Fair, you have to be at least 21 years of age to get into the festival.

Theme parties at Replay Lincoln Park aren't a totally new concept. Some of their most popular parties have been surrounding popular movies and TV shows like Friends for years now.

Replay Lincoln Park is located at 2833 North Sheffield Avenue in Chicago.
