Think you know the books better than the movies? Have strong opinions about adaptations? Spent enough time in the fandom that the fanfic round does not scare you?This night is for you.
Join Beyond the Chronicles for a full evening built around 10 rounds of Harry Potter trivia, a plated dinner, immersive fantasy experiences, faction sorting, and a bookish vendor market.
Come with your trivia team, your book club, your favorite fandom friends, or attend solo and meet people who love the magical world just as much as you do.
The Main Event: 10 Rounds of Harry Potter Trivia
📚 4 rounds of book trivia
🎬 4 rounds of movie trivia
✨ 1 round of fanfiction trivia
⚡ 1 surprise bonus round
Expect a mix of easier questions, deep-cut fandom knowledge, moments that will have your entire table arguing over the answer, and plenty of opportunities to prove which member of your group actually knows the most.
You do not need to be a walking encyclopedia to participate. Trivia is designed to be fun, social, competitive, and entertaining whether you have reread the series twenty times or just love the world.
