The Philadelphia Orchestra Will Screen Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Perform the Score Live.
Calling all witches, wizards, and muggles alike—something magical is brewing in the heart of Philly. From September 26–28, the Kimmel Center’s Marian Anderson Hall will be transformed into the ultimate Hogwarts experience as the Philadelphia Orchestra brings Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets™ to life—live in concert.
That’s right: the full film will be projected on the big screen while the iconic John Williams score is performed live, filling the hall with every soaring melody, spine-tingling moment, and spellbinding sound from the wizarding world. Whether you’re a longtime Potterhead or introducing the magic to a new generation, this is a night you won’t want to miss.
And this concert is just the start of a cinematic symphony series. Following Harry’s second-year showdown with the basilisk, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring will take the stage in December, and Disney’s beloved Fantasia in Concert will wrap up the series in whimsical style.
Tickets start at $50, and for the true film-music fans, there’s a special package deal if you want to catch all three performances. Secure your seats and get ready for a spellbinding season of sound and cinema at philorch.ensembleartsphilly.org.
So dust off your robes, polish your broomsticks, and grab your chocolate frogs—The magic is real, and it’s coming to Philly.
