After more than 5 years, the audience in the Czech Republic will once again enjoy the music of John Williams performed by The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, accompanying the screening of a full-length film from one of the most beloved film series in history.

The globally successful Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone™ in Concert, as part of the only official Harry Potter Film Concert Series, returns to the Czech Republic after more than 5 years! This unique and grand concert, which will connect the iconic film melodies composed by the renowned composer John Williams with The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, will take place on February 10th at O2 universum in Prague, and there are even two concerts planned! This exceptional audiovisual spectacle will not only offer a perfect live music experience enhanced by the performance of the 90-member The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra led by the renowned conductor Ernst van Tiel but will also allow the audience to relive the magic of the entire film Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone on a large 16-meter screen in high definition. The film will be screened with Czech dubbing, allowing children to fully enjoy this unique experience! The perfect combination of film, music, and live symphony performance will take place in Prague in February, with two concerts on a single day.

“We are delighted that the Harry Potter Film Concert Series is returning to the Czech Republic, and that we can offer this unique spectacle to the Czech audience in Prague once again. Although we are all familiar with the film itself, the connection with the live 90-member symphony orchestra of The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra will be an experience of an entirely different dimension,” says Tibor Engler, the producer of the Czech concerts. He adds that the concerts will be a 100% combination of the film, music, and live orchestra in the truest sense. During the concerts, the entire film with Czech dubbing will be shown on the screen, with the music provided by the renowned orchestra of The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.

The unique Harry Potter Film Concert Series is once again entering the Czech Republic, which is among the 48 other countries where these concerts have been held since 2016 and have been seen by over 3 million viewers. The Prague concerts of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in Concert will also offer a rich accompanying program, which the organizers will unveil in the coming days. Tickets are already available in the Ticketportal and Ticketmaster presale networks.

In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s/Philosopher’s Stone, Harry Potter learns on his 11th birthday that he is the orphaned son of two wizards and possesses magical powers of his own. At Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he learns the high-flying sport of Quidditch and plays a thrilling ‘live’ chess game en route to facing a Dark Wizard bent on destroying him.

Justin Freer, President of CineConcerts and Producer/Conductor of the Harry Potter Film Concert Series explains, “The Harry Potter film series is a once-in-a-lifetime cultural phenomenon that continues to delight millions of fans around the world. It is with great pleasure that we bring fans for the first time ever an opportunity to experience the award-winning music scores played live by a symphony orchestra, all while the beloved film is simultaneously projected onto the big screen. This is truly an unforgettable event.” Brady Beaubien of CineConcerts and Concert Producer for the Harry Potter Film Concert Series added, “Harry Potter is synonymous with excitement around the world and we hope that by performing this incredible music with the full movie, audiences will enjoy returning to the Wizarding World.”
