The wizard activists of SPEWW are thrilled to welcome you to our very first con full of all things magic, wizarding, and witchy! Cauldron Con will celebrate your favorite wizarding fandom through enchanting local vendors, magical panels, trivia, costume contests, spellbinding crafts, and more!
We'll be taking over both ballrooms at the Crowne Plaza to maximize your magical content. Play games, learn about local nonprofits we've supported, and find all types of mystical magical goods to take home.
Follow our event for updates on ticket add-ons, vendors, panelists, and more. If you're a vendor, would like to sponsor our event, run programming of some kind, or would like to volunteer, you can find all those forms here: https://spewwpdx.org/cauldron-con-2026/
This is an all-ages event and a fundraiser.
Proceeds from Cauldron Con will benefit Friendly House's Elder Pride Services, a nonprofit organization whose work supports the older LGBTQ+ community through advocacy, outreach, education, and resource development. Many elder queer people face isolation and difficulty in finding community and services that still include them, so Friendly House makes sure they have access to those, bring in lecturers & musicians, and take them on outings to theatrical performances.
SPEWW is an all-volunteer nonprofit dedicated to literacy, equality, and human rights. We stand with the Harry Potter fandom and believe there is still good to be done in Harry’s name. We are committed to helping uplift and empower the transgender community as well as create safe spaces for all LGBTQIA+ people in the HP fandom.
