UPCOMING EVENT -
School of Witchcraft and Wizardry – Enchanted Evening
Saturday • October 18, 2025
Dearest Friend,
Your presence has been requested, for one enchanted evening. The Grand School of Witchcraft and Wizardry shall extend its magic beyond ancient castle walls, stepping gracefully into the realm of Muggles (non-magic folk) to gather at the illustrious E.O.U.V. Club for a celebration unlike any other.
Upon arrival, you shall be guided beneath the star-lit ceiling to the Great Hall reborn, where ancient traditions decree that each guest must be sorted into a House. United with your fellow witches and wizards, you will partake in a magnificent feast, brimming with delights prepared by our Magical Stewards themselves.
Yet ominous whispers stir within the castle walls… where strange enchantments, shadowed secrets, ancient curses and riddles are to be revealed and ultimately solved! Throughout the night, mysteries will unfold around you, and your House will be called upon to prove its cleverness, courage, ambition, and loyalty. This enchanted gathering is of the rarest kind:
✨ Seats are limited — only those who secure their place in advance will be admitted.
✨ Payment is required to confirm your “enrollment”
Junior Witches & Wizards - Free (ages 6 and under)
First-Years - $20 (ages 7 to 11)
Advanced Witches & Wizards (adults) - $35
Polish your wands, don your robes, and step into a night where magic and mystery entwine.
