Get Your Tickets For Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Family Gaming in the Garden Night
Have you jumped on the latest augmented reality gaming craze? Harry Potter fans have been anxiously awaiting the launch of Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, and now it’s game on! The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden is calling all wizards to gather on July 11 from 6 to 9 p.m. to cast their spells. This event sounds like a great opportunity for all Harry Potter fans to gather together and hone their skills. With more than three dozen inns on the grounds of the Botanical gardens, wizards can replenish their magical energy.
The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden invites locals and visitors to bring their wands and head to the garden to play Harry Potter: Wizards Unite. Free to play, Wizards Unite is a fun, family-friendly smartphone adventure game by the same creators as Pokémon Go. On Thursday, July 11 from 6 to 9 p.m., the garden hosts Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Family Gaming in the Garden Night. This is the perfect opportunity for those who want to get their game on after hours.
Costumes & Wands Welcome
Dave Forehand, Dallas Arboretum vice president of gardens, said, “Get your wands up, grab your Nimbus 2000, and zip over to the garden to test your skills at our four fortresses, eight greenhouses, and more than three dozen inns. What better realm to play in than ours!”
On July 11 from 6 to 9 p.m., the community is invited to purchase tickets and attend the Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Family Gaming in the Garden Night. Attendees are encouraged to dress up in their favorite family-friendly Harry Potter costumes (no masks, please) and get their game on throughout the main garden.
