Step into a magical evening at the Yule Ball, where the enchantment of the Wizarding World comes alive! Guests will be transported to a winter wonderland with a beautifully decorated venue reminiscent of the grand hall at Hogwarts. The Yule Ball of old commerated the Tri-Wizard Tournament. Now we celebrate the victory of the Battle of Hogwarts fought and won on May 2, 1998.

Your evening will begin with appetizers in the Common Rooms along with some fun games and a scavenger hunt.

You can savor a delicious array of dishes at the buffet in the Great Hall, including savory favorites as well as delectable desserts from Honey Dukes. See the link below to view the full menu. Enjoy a selection of refreshing beverages from Butterbeer to Pumpkin Juice from the Three Broomsticks. Our delightful gift shop, Borgin & Burkes, will feature lots of artisian wares themed perfect from the event. We'll have our official Hogwarts photographer on hand from Abby Miller Photography to capture your magical moments. There will also be plenty of themed photo spots for you to create your own memories. The celebration will be filled with music for you to dance the night away or if you prefer, there will be Harry Potter games to test your knowledge of the wizarding world. This year's Wizarding Class being offered is in Herbology where you can decorate a pot and plant your very own "Mandrake". We promise these little guys will be a quiet species.

Themed attire or elegant evening wear is encouraged but not required! Whether you're a Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw, come and celebrate the wizarding world with us. Our esteemed Head Master and professors will be handing out a few points for those who represent well.

We look forward to seeing you for a spellbinding and magical evening.
