“Perfectly Magical – 20 Years of Harry Potter”
Celebration of 20 years since the first tales about The Boy Who Lived reached Potterheads.


It’s been 20 years since the very first tale of The Boy Who Lived was widely read. Ever since then the magical wizarding world has never failed to inspire generations of Potterheads.
To celebrate this timeless milestone, The British Council Vietnam, with the support of Hogwarts Vietnam and Tre Publishing House, proudly invite you to join our series of ‘Perfectly Magical’ events, on the occasion of European Literature Days with all the spells and magical happenings!
At the event, you will not only have the opportunity to see all editions that published by Youth Publishing House in the past twenty years, but also to join magical interactive activities with Hogwarts Vietnam. At the 9¾ station, you could “send your owl” to your beloved ones or be determined which of the four school Houses you belong most to by the Sorting hat… If you have Harry Potter as a friend, come along to celebrate the birthday of The Chosen One!
“Perfectly Magical – 20 Years of Harry Potter” will be held from 06 to 14 May 2017 at Book street 19/12, Tran Hung Dao, Hanoi and from 13 to 14 May 2017 at Book street Nguyen Van Binh, HCMC.
