Muggles and magic folk are invited to join the University of Newcastle in celebrating the 20th anniversary of the publication of the first Harry Potter novel with a FREE public screening of the film Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone at the Central Coast Campus.

Come along and celebrate this magical milestone with the University of Newcastle - dress up as your favourite character and be prepared to have your Harry Potter knowledge tested, with prizes given for the best costume and most knowledgable fan!

There will be special treats available and light refreshments will be available prior to the screening in Lecture Theatre 2. House scarves and other costumes encouraged - prizes for the best ones!

The movie screening will be preceded by a panel discussion on Fairy tale and fandom, with insight from four contemporary literature and Harry Potter experts.
