Have you ever dreamed of making your grand entrance in a beautifully elegant pink gown on the steps of a great old castle, all eyes on you, everyone’s mouths just a little agape at how different you look all dressed up? Or maybe you’ve imagined waltzing across the grand floors late into the night, staring into the eyes of the schoolmate you’ve secretly—for the length of about four books—been crushing on. Perhaps you’ve conjured an image of you stuffing your face with pumpkin pasties and drinking Butterbeer like there’s no tomorrow. Well, your letter to Hogwarts might’ve never arrived, but you can experience the magic in another way… While it’s back-to-school season in the wizarding world of Harry Potter, you can attend the Yule Ball in the real world!

Harry Potter: A Yule Ball Celebration comes to Manila

Having had successful tours in Milan, Montreal, Sydney, and more, now it’s Manila’s turn to experience an evening full of festive activities.

While not exactly the death-defying, adrenaline-producing, edge-of-the-seat stuff we see in the Triwizard Tournament, picture instead themed food and drinks, Instagram-worthy photo opportunities, fashion parades, exclusive merchandise, and dancing the night away to the original soundtrack of the film.

Basically, it’s like prom but make it Harry Potter.

What to expect

The event runs from September 3, 2026 to October 4, 2026. Presented by GMG Productions, the immersive experience will be held at The Space At Solaire in Parañaque City, which will be decked out to look like the Great Hall in our very own city—a page straight out of The Goblet of Fire.

There will be exquisite silver drapings, Christmas trees dotted with snow, and festive decorations, because as we all know, September comes with a breath of Christmastime. Celebrate the Yuletide season at the Yule Ball!

Who can attend?

Open to couples, single witches and wizards, families, groups, even muggles—which, let’s face it, we all are—Harry Potter: A Yule Ball Celebration opens its doors for all to witness the magic we’ve only seen in the books and movies.

Guests are encouraged—meaning it’s not mandatory—to dress to impress, whether that means wizard robes (because obviously we all have our own, bedecked in our house colors), wizard-inspired suits and gowns, or anything to go with that mental image of you wowing everyone on the grand staircase, à la Hermoine.
