Wizardly World of Jonesborough
July 27, 2024 @ 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm
A truly magical experience is coming to Tennessee’s Oldest Town on Saturday, July 27 from 5 to 9 p.m. as downtown Jonesborough is transformed into a world of wizardry in celebration of Harry Potter’s birthday.
Attendees will have access to over twenty treat, drink and activity stops. This will range from Fizzing Whizzbees to Liquid Luck and wand-making to a sluice hunt for the sorcerer’s stone. During the event, festival goers will meet real live owls, explore Hagrid’s Hut, kiddos can ride the Hogwarts Express and some might even discover the secret passage to Diagon Alley.
Two ticket options are available; a pack of 10 tickets can be purchased for $20 which provides access to sample themed food and drink tastings at designated locations along with activities, or the same pack of 10 tickets plus five alcoholic beverage tickets for $35.
In addition, attendees can join the Goose Chase for a 1-mile race, the Sorcerer’s Sprint, to celebrate Harry Potter’s 45th birthday. Everyone is encouraged to attend dressed up in their best Harry Potter outfit to help celebrate his birthday. A separate ticket is needed for the Sorcerer’s Sprint.
