Harry Potter films to be screened in IMAX for special weeklong event

It’s been a big year for fans of Harry Potter — and it’s only going to get bigger: All eight Harry Potter films will be screened in IMAX (as well as 2D) for a week beginning Oct. 13.

The franchise’s first two films — 2001’s Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone and 2002’s Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets — will be digitally re-mastered into IMAX, marking the first time either film has received this treatment.

Additionally, fans attending the weeklong Harry Potter engagement at select theaters across the U.S. and internationally will receive a first look at never-before-seen footage from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the latest flick to emerge from J.K. Rowling’s literary universe. The cast from that film, out Nov. 18, will make appearances at certain screenings in London and Los Angeles.

Multiple types of tickets, including single day and all-access passes, can be purchased online and at participating IMAX theaters. For more information, click here.
