Potter Film Concert Series, a global concert tour celebrating the Harry Potter films.
Since the world premiere of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in Concert in 2016,
more
than 3 million fans have enjoyed this magical experience from The
Wizarding World, which is scheduled to include over 2,973 performances

In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, Harry Potter learns on his 11 th birthday that he
is the orphaned son of two wizards and possesses magical powers of his own. At
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he learns the high-flying sport of Quidditch
and plays a thrilling ‘live’ chess game en route to facing a Dark Wizard bent on
destroying him.
Justin Freer, President of CineConcerts and Producer/Conductor of the Harry Potter

cultural phenomenon that continues to delight millions of fans around the world. It is with
great pleasure that we bring fans for the first time ever an opportunity to experience the
award-winning music scores played live by a symphony orchestra, all while the beloved
film is simultaneously projected onto the big screen. This is truly an unforgettable
event.”
Brady Beaubien of CineConcerts and Concert Producer for the Harry Potter Film
Concert Series added, “Harry Potter is synonymous with excitement around the world
and we hope that by performing this incredible music with the full movie, audiences will
enjoy returning to the Wizarding World.”
