If your family is full of Harry Potter fans (or you’re raising the next generation of witches and wizards), this is one night you won’t want to miss.

On Saturday, June 7, 2025, the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra is bringing the magic of Harry Potter and the Deathly HallowsTM – Part 1 to life with a breathtaking live performance of Alexandre Desplat’s award-winning score.

While the entire film plays on a massive 40-foot screen, the ASO will perform every soaring melody and heart-pounding moment right in sync, making for an unforgettable, big screen-meets-live-music experience at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre.

There’s something about hearing a live orchestra that makes movie magic even more powerful— especially for young fans who may have never experienced a symphony before. Whether you’ve watched Harry Potter and the Deathly HallowsTM a hundred times or you’re introducing your kids to the story for the first time, this unique performance promises to pull you even deeper into the wizarding world.

As the Harry Potter saga nears its epic finale, Deathly HallowsTM – Part 1 follows Harry, Ron, and Hermione as they leave Hogwarts behind to track down and destroy Voldemort’s Horcruxes.

With dark forces closing in and friendships tested, the stakes have never been higher. And with Desplat’s emotionally charged, cinematic score performed live, every moment feels even more intense.

Justin Freer, President of CineConcerts and Producer/Conductor of the Harry Potter Film Concert Series, says: “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.”

A PERFECT NIGHT OUT FOR POTTER FANS

So, whether you’re planning a magical family outing or looking for the perfect gift for the Potterhead in your life, this is your chance to experience the wizarding world like never before. Get ready to be spellbound— this is Harry Potter as you’ve never seen (or heard) it before!
