The Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Fan Festival, happening Labor Day weekend, August 31st and September 1st at White River State Park in Indianapolis is fast approaching! WB Games and Niantic announced a Global Challenge that will coincide with the event.
Some Sunday tickets for the Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Fan Festival are still available via the app, so get yours now!
Participants at the Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Fan Festival will not be the only ones who get to experience the new content coming to the game including new Portkeys and the much-anticipated introduction of Dragons! While Fan Festival attendees will experience all of the new Dragons and Portmanteaus, players all over the world will also be competing to unlock new content in their regions via special Portkeys that lead to Dragon Eggs. If each region unlocks enough dragon eggs, those dragons will show up on their area!
If attendees of the Fan Festival are successful, a special Day of the Dragons event will take place on September 7. During this 3-hour period, each region will be visited by a Dragon not typically found in the area. The exact type of Dragon will depend on which type of Dragon Egg was collected the most in that specific region during the Global Challenge. For example, if players in Asia collect more Antipodean Opaleye Dragon eggs than any other type during the Global Challenge, they will encounter Antipodean Opaleye Oddities for the 3-hour event and receive bonus XP for all Dragons returned during the Day of the Dragons!
Registration for the Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Fan Festival ticket drawing is now live in app. They also revealed that dragons will be making their debut in the game at Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Fan Festival.
The Fan Festival will take place at White River State Park in Indianapolis, from August 31st to September 1st. Lots of fun activities and special in-game bonuses and events are planned for each day of the festivities.
There are two levels of tickets, general ($30) and early access ($40.) Tickets are for ONE DAY, not both days of the festival. Additional details about ticketing, rules, and instructions on how fans can enter the drawing are available at the official event site.

All ticket holders will explore the sprawling White River State Park as they complete exclusive event-specific Special Assignments and be the first to discover brand new in-game encounters, including never-before-seen Oddities – Dragons. From the Welsh Green to the Antipodean Opaleye, these regional Oddities will be making their landfall debut in the game at Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Fan Festival in Indianapolis this Aug. 31 – Sept. 1. Fans will want to take advantage of this unique opportunity as after the event, the different dragon varieties will only appear in specific regions around the world.
As players come together in Indianapolis, they’ll be able to commemorate their experience and friendships by snapping photos with iconic elements from the game. Come prepared to contain the Calamity as you’ll need to work with fellow SOS Task Force members within the park, and across the globe, to unlock additional special rewards for the global community.

In a new video released this morning, Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is calling all wizards to help them with the recent goings on in the muggle world!
In Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, each incident increasingly places the wizarding world at risk of exposure, and players must work to solve the mystery of this Calamity as new recruits of the Statute of Secrecy Task Force. Players will be able to explore their real-world neighbourhoods and cities to discover mysterious artefacts, cast spells, and encounter fantastic beasts and iconic characters along the way.
Co-published and co-developed by WB Games San Francisco and Niantic, Inc., Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is under the Portkey Games label. Portkey Games is dedicated to creating new Wizarding World mobile and videogame experiences that place the player at the centre of their own adventure, inspired by J.K. Rowling’s original stories.
Players can pre-register for the game on Google Play or the Galaxy Store for Android devices to be among the first players to experience the magic of Harry Potter: Wizards Unite when it launches later this year.
