Information supplied by city of Danville
Join us as we transform Downtown Danville into a magical land for all to enjoy on Friday, November 3, from 5-8 PM! At the stroke of 5:00 PM Vermilion Street will become Diagon Alley, North Street will become Knockturn Alley, and the Danville Public Library will become Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!
As one strolls through the whimsical Downtown Danville, be weary as one never knows what one might see! One may even want to pick up a scavenger hunt list at any of the Downtown Shops to see if they can find all the hidden items throughout Downtown for a chance to win a prize. Turn in your completed scavenger hunt maps to The Fischer Theatre before 8:00 to be entered into a drawing for a fabulous prize package! Don’t forget to venture to Hogwarts (at the Library), to see Potterfest characters in action! While you are on your journey, enjoy some Butterbeer at Cafe 13’!
See if you can find Hagrid in the Forbidden Forest, visit dementor cove and get a new tattoo at Markus Scarr’s (Requite Tattoo), have your fortune read by Professor Trelawney, collect a potion, or try your hand at quidditch at Kresge Park. Get your themed Potterfest photo taken and printed on the spot by Rossi Photo Studios, and visit The County Administration Building (Hogsmeade) which will also host a variety of potter-themed booths, products, and activities! Compete at Sweet Repeats in a Harry Potter Themed Trivia Tournament at 6:30. Registration is at 6:00 PM. Teams of 4, please. First come, first serve.
All this and many more magical surprises are Downtown on Friday, November 3 from 5-8 PM at the 5th annual Potterfest!
