Be in to WIN a trip to Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in Melbourne

Books Company

Add a comment By Stacey

Hachette New Zealand is giving away one of the most impressive Harry Potter prizes we've ever seen!

Purchase a copy of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: The Journey and enter the competition for your chance to WIN a trip for two (including flights and accommodation) to see the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child live show in Melbourne, plus a behind the scenes experience!

We want this epic prize to be won by a Mighty Ape customer so grab your copy of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: The Journey now and enter here. Already got your copy? You can still enter.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is one of the most celebrated stage productions of the past decade. Opening in London's West End in 2016, on Broadway in 2018 and in Melbourne in 2019 – and with more productions worldwide still to come (including San Francisco later this year) – the play has smashed records, collected countless rave reviews and awards, and captivated audiences night after night. Now readers are invited behind the scenes to experience the show's journey to the stage – from the earliest phases of development with producers Sonia Friedman and Colin Callender, to the crafting of the eighth Harry Potter story with J.K. Rowling, director John Tiffany and playwright Jack Thorne, and to the gathering of an extraordinary team of artists and actors together to bring this new part of Harry's story to life.
