Kalamunda has transformed into the heart of the wizarding world, with a select group of local VIPs invited to an exclusive preview night on Thursday to welcome the magical Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience to Perth.
Magical Evening at Jorgensen Park
With wands raised, guests wandered through Jorgensen Park's illuminated woodland trail, encountering magical creatures such as Hippogriffs and Nifflers, and casting spells made famous in the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts film series.
Enchanting light and sound installations accompanied them through the forest, before muggles, wizards, and witches alike gathered in the themed village to enjoy Butterbeer, hot chocolate, and toasted marshmallows around crackling fire pits.
Notable Guests
Among the attendees were Channel 7 presenters Angela Tsun, Amelia Broun, and Samantha Jolly.
The rare experience is available for a limited time this winter, offering fans a unique opportunity to step into the magical world.
Photo gallery highlights include Paula & Casey Aubin, Stella, Emma & Leila McGann, Matt Simpson & Liz Stillisano, Brendan Wenck, Samantha Jolly & Tess Rowe, and Liam Vaughan & Tahlia Strother, all captured by Alan Chau of The West Australian.
