The Wizard's Brunch
A Harry Potter-themed feast in the 'Great Hall' for muggles.
Overview
When Sydney's Harry Potter-themed boozy brunches were announced, the city couldn't say "accio butterbeer" fast enough, with the first two stints selling out quickly. Now, due to massive muggle demand, Melbourne is getting a round of feasts early next year across four sessions, spanning both brunch and dinner.
Melbourne Town Hall is the location that'll be turned into the Great Hall for the occasion, complete with an enchanted meal (Pixie Puffs, please), bottomless butterbeer (obviously), 'magic' potions (aka wine) and other wizard-themed beverages. There'll also be quidditch, a couple of sorting ceremonies and wand lessons — and Harry Potter characters mingling with attendees, if that's your idea of some perfect HP fun.
Tickets are currently on sale, but they're not likely to stay that way for long, even though you'll need a bag full of galleons to head along. Your ticket includes all food and three hours of drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) — but at $205 per head, you'd be hoping for a Yule Ball-type experience.
