Mischief managed | Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 live with the ASO

The Adelaide Symphony Orchestra performs the final Harry Potter film live this Halloween, with children's tickets from $30.

From the moment Harry first boarded the Hogwarts Express to the final Battle of Hogwarts, millions of fans have followed one of the world’s most beloved stories.

This Halloween, families have one final chance to experience that journey in an extraordinary way as the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra presents Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows™: Part 2 In Concert – the epic finale of the official Harry Potter Film Concert Series.

Taking place on Saturday 31 October at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre, this is the final Harry Potter film to be performed live by the ASO, making it a truly unforgettable event for South Australian fans. Whether you’ve grown up with Harry, Hermione and Ron, or are introducing the Wizarding World to the next generation, this is a magical experience to share together.

As the final chapter unfolds on a giant high-definition screen, the ASO performs every note of Alexandre Desplat’s soaring, emotional score live. It’s an experience unlike watching the film at home, with every spell, every triumph and every heartbreaking farewell elevated by the power of a full symphony orchestra.

“Film music is one of the most powerful ways for audiences to experience the impact of a live orchestra,” says Kate Suthers, ASO Concertmaster. “Whether it’s the sweeping themes of John Williams’ Star Wars or the spellbinding world of Harry Potter, nothing compares to hearing these iconic scores live as the movie plays on the big screen.”

And audiences agree! “My sister and I have been attending the Harry Potter in Concert performances from the beginning – it’s become our thing. She says it feels like she is watching it for the very first time. Only this time it was even better, because the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra was right there, bringing every moment to life.” – ASO 2025 Audience Member

For many families, Harry Potter is more than a series of films – it’s a story that has been shared across generations. Seeing it with a live orchestra transforms the experience, creating moments of excitement, laughter and emotion that simply can’t be recreated anywhere else.

Dust off your Hogwarts scarves, gather your fellow Gryffindors, Hufflepuffs, Ravenclaws or Slytherins, and feel the energy in the room as thousands of Harry Potter fans come together to experience Harry Potter Live in Concert.

There will be no next chapter, no sequel, and no second chance to experience Harry Potter with the ASO. Join them for one final adventure on Saturday 31 October at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre. Tickets are on sale now, with children’s tickets from $30 and family ticket offers available.
