The Philly Pops were on hand representing all four houses of Hogwarts to get everyone in the Harry Potter spirit.



Visitors can expect an up-close look at authentic props and original costumes from the films, a lesson in the Dark Arts, a visit to Gringotts and the magnificent Ministry of Magic.



And get this - a golden snitch will guide you through the immersive experience.



It all kicks off on February 18 at the Franklin Institute!
