Going to Vegas, Baby

I just signed up for Leviosa - and am kind of excited even though it is a bazilion days away. I signed up tonight because I wanted to help them make their IndieGoGo campaign goal.

Here are some numbers put together by  [livejournal.com profile] bonsaibetz at Leviosa By The Numbers: 3 Day Left for our IndieGoGo campaign

Here are some numbers regarding Leviosa:


447 days left until Leviosa starts
6 Tracks featuring Academic, Fandom, Slash & Queer Lit, Creativity, YA Lit and Writing programming
10 rooms for programming at Green Valley Ranch
580 capacity in our largest programming room, theater style seating, so plenty of seating to see our big draw panels and special guests
8 authors and HP guests we've booked as special guests so far (many more HP guests will be booked in the coming months)
2 literary agents we have booked for our Writing Track so far

8 restaurants inside Green Valley Ranch for dining choices within the resort and close to the conference (Mercadito and Tippling Hall to open April 2015, and Pizza Rock just opened!)  This number doesn'tinclude the restaurants in the food court, so there are actually more.
14 restaurants located within The District, a shopping district located right next to Green Valley Ranch, all within a 30 second to 8 1/2 mintue walk.
1 very luxurious spa, which access to is included in your $14.99 daily resort fee, so you'll have a place to relax in a sauna or spa soaker or take a few laps inthe lap pool, which is separate and apart from the regular pool, or use the fitness equiment in the gym
10 theaters at the Regal Cinema located at the bottom of the esclalator, which is next to the food court.
5 bars located inside Green Valley Ranch


302 Tweets on our Leviosa Twitter account so far
21 followers on Instigram
361 likes on Facebook
41 entries on LiveJournal


7 Harry Potter drinks we have published so far and many more to come.
76 different drink recipes (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) I have personally tried (and some complete failures), to present Harry Potter themed drinks that are verified to be tasty.  Yes, there are more drinks on the way and this tally includes those drinks I haven't photographed and we haven't published so far.  More drinks to come, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic,


87 funders on IndieGoGo so far, so spread the word about our campaign
3 2 VIP registrations available at the early bird price of $350 left
18 different perks to choose from to support this awesome Harry Potter and YA LIt conference
2 different tote bags we are offering through perks: "I Like Big Books" and "What Happens In Vegas" featuring slash fanart


$25 you will save off of a regular registration, normally priced $175, but only $150 through IndieGoGo
$50 you will save off of a VIP registration, normally priced $400, but only $350 through IndieGoGo
$155 per night for a Double Queen Room ($180 if you book 3 to a room, $205 if you book 4 to a room) at Green Valley Ranch
$135 per night for a King Room (double occupancy) at Green Valley Ranch
$3,262 needed to reach our goal of $15,000 for our IndieGoGo campaign
$0 is being paid to the committee and volunteer of Leviosa.  That's right - ZERO.  We are doing this FOR FREE, donating to you, fellow Harry Potter fans, our blood, sweat and tears for free.



There are only 3 days left to Leviosa's IndieGoGo campaign

Sounds exciting! I want to pimp this as well, can I copy/paste the statistics on my journal? :)

Of course! I shared it from the Leviosa Con page. And they just hit 90% funding! Only 1,500 to go and the Indiegogo fees will be halved which means $$$ for more cool guests.

JELUS. Maybe I'll make it over there yet...

You should! Although I have to make the disclaimer that Vegas is not for everyone (desert city that only exists because of gambling and the Hoover Dam) but still HARRYPOTTER/WRITING CON!

God yeah, I have less than no interest in Vegas, especially in the summer, which is the second biggest reason I probably won't go. (Biggest is that my job is at its heaviest in the summer and it's v hard to get leave in July or August.) Buuuuuut I waana!

I'm so happy that you'll get to go to Vegas, you lucky girl!!! :D I wish I could go, but it's absolutely neither feasible nor reasonable, so... *sigh* I'm sure this is going to be amazing, and that you'll have great fun! ♥
