(Photo not found) Calling all Harry Potter fans, it’s time to pull out your wands and unite once more for the ultimate celebration of witchcraft and wizardry. Can you believe that it’s already been 20 years since we saw Harry meet best friends Ron and Hermione, take on a troll in the girls toilets and face Voldemort for the very first time? To honor the beginning of Harry’s magical journey, many events will be popping up all around the UK for those looking to be spellbound. We’ve already seen one almighty stunt in celebration of HP, when nearly 700 children broke the Guinness World Record for the largest gathering of people dressed like Harry Potter in one place! (Photo not found) Not only that, but Rowling’s publisher Bloomsbury will be releasing four new editions of the book, one for each house at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry. The book covers feature the crest for each house and inside you can find fact files, character profiles and illustrations.

The one and only J.K Rowling herself also decided to add to the celebrations by divulging more information about Potter’s family tree, much to fans delight. J.K’s official Potter fan site Pottermore also recently announced a Wizarding World Book Club, allowing fans to revisit their favourite books and discuss them online. Harry Potter And The Philosopher’s Stone was first published on June 26 1997 and since then it has sold more than 450 million copies worldwide in an impressive 79 languages. This of course led to the magical movie franchise of which propelled Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint into the spotlight, as well as a highly acclaimed sold-out theatre production and several theme parks dotted around the globe.
