Harry Potter: Hogwarts Tournament of Houses
What's the Story?
HARRY POTTER: HOGWARTS TOURNAMENT OF HOUSES is a bracket-style competition where diverse fans of the series compete for their Hogwarts house in teams of three. In front of a live audience, Houses (Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Racvenclaw) go head to head in four fast-paced rounds of competition. With some help from their fellow House members, each team must answer hundreds of Wizarding World trivia questions, having to recall specific details of the series. Each question earns the team points, and they are asked in multiple-choice format, as well as recall from sounds, props, clips, and passages from the books and films. Winning teams of each round advance to the grand finale to determine who will take home the coveted Tournament of Houses championship trophy and epic prizes!
