Hogwarts-Harry-potter-experience

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone is being brought to life by three Harry Potter super fans at The Association Mimbulus Mimbletonia. A fully immersive experience, you will have the opportunity to buy your wizarding robes, wand, textbooks and other supplies at Diagon Alley. What’s better? You can even have Butterbeer at Leaky Cauldron, get sorted into your house, play Quidditch and even attend classes and take exams! The Château de Jolibert in Bourgougnague—a well-equipped school, complete with classrooms, dormitories and a huge ground, in south-west France will play host to this weekend full of magic from 25 to 28 May 2017.

Tickets for the event cost €185, which is inclusive of food and accommodation for the weekend. The event is limited to only 100 attendees, so make sure you are ready to grab your tickets when they go on sale on 10 December!

The doors are opening and you stand quivering in your robes, waiting to be sorted. Chanting in your head (let it be Gryffindor, let it Gryffindor) with butterflies in your stomach.

If you are in love with the idea of this parallel reality- of living in the wizarding world and have waited for your Hogwarts letter to arrive since you were a child, this is your chance!
