Birmingham in the running to host Harry Potter exhibition
Birmingham has been revealed among eight other cities in the running to host an upcoming Harry Potter exhibition.
A national poll for fans to decide the future tour locations of the Wizarding World Wands supporting Lumos installation has seen Birmingham enter the final, alongside Dublin, Kingston Upon Hull, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Reading and Stoke on Trent.
A final poll will determine which four locations will host the event, that illuminated London last year.
Standing 15 feet tall and set within concrete bases, the nine wands – bringing to life those belonging to some of the most beloved characters in the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films – illuminate each night, performing a light show to music from the Fantastic Beasts and Harry Potter films.
They were created in support of Lumos, whose mission is to end the institutionalisation of children around the world.
