Catch your favorite Harry Potter films on August 30 and 31 to bond with the family!

For many millennial parents who once lined up in bookstores to get the next Harry Potter book, there’s now an opportunity to let your kids feel the same magic. This August, bring the whole family to the cinemas as Harry Potter returns to the big screen for a limited time—offering a memorable theatrical experience for fans both old and new.

On August 30 and 31, the final Harry Potter films – Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 1 and 2 will be screened in participating SM Cinemas, completing the two-part showcase that began earlier this month.

The best part? Ticket prices are incredibly family-friendly at PHP275 in Metro Manila and PHP230 in the provinces. A big deal indeed.

Why You Should Catch It in Cinemas

While the Harry Potter films are available for streaming, nothing compares to watching them on the big screen. It’s an opportunity to bond with fellow fans and get lost in the wizarding world—even just for a few hours away from home.

New to the Wizarding World?

Harry Potter is the story of a young boy who discovers he’s a wizard—and the “Chosen One” destined to defeat the dark lord Voldemort. Alongside his friends Ron and Hermione, Harry navigates spells, potions, Quidditch, and growing up, all while facing the weight of his destiny.

Based on the books by British author J.K. Rowling, the films have become part of global pop culture. Years later, the magic lives on through Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, themed attractions, and merchandise that still flies off the shelves.

Immerse in the Magic

Whether it’s your child’s first time at Hogwarts or your tenth return, the magic of Harry Potter is timeless, and sharing that with your kids? That’s a kind of spell only families can cast.
