Harry Potter: A Yule Ball Celebration - Houston heads to town this fall, set to enchant attendees much like the grand - and somewhat drama-filled - gala in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The lavish affair kicks off on Nov. 18 at Galleria-area venue Paraiso Maravilla (5714 Fairdale Ln.), with an elegant experience offering - to quote the esteemed Professor McGonagall - "well-mannered frivolity" for all.
Some major bragging rights: Houston is the sole U.S. city to host the new ball. Only three other cities around the globe have secured the chance to host the coveted event: Mexico City, Montreal, and Milan, according to co-producers Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment and entertainment firm, Fever.
