I wonder who could be engraving wands.... 🤫😉

With a little magic, in just three weeks, this ordinary brick wall will be part of Dragon Alley, the path leading into our WizardFest marketplace! 🪄

On September 5th, follow the alley and discover magical makers, vendors, tarot and flame readings, crystals, curiosities, and more waiting behind the Hollow.

And you don’t need a 9.75 Experience Pass to come explore. The marketplace is free and open to everyone!✨

Want to make a day of it? The $38 9.75 Experience Pass includes seven hands-on magical experiences, including your own engraved wand.

We’re not quite ready to show you everything yet… but we’ll be sharing more as WizardFest gets closer.

September 5th•11am-3pm
Kodiak Hollow•Waterloo, IL

What do you think Dragon Alley should have waiting around the corner? 👀
