Comic Con 2017 (5 of 5) -- Outside Hall H and Hilton hotel area (updated 7.30.17)

In the area between Hall H and the Hilton Hotel.. there are a number of Comic Con related attractions...

Each year, the Starbucks at the Hilton hotel gets decorated with a pop culture movie theme. Large screens show the highlighted film...to entertain customers in line and inside the store.. This year's theme was Harry Potter.

Inside the store, I was able to photograph this Harry Potter cosplay crew..
