Wizard Wrock is coming to Scotland. Yes, for the first time the wildly popular rock music played by Harry Potter fans will be performed in the shadow of Hogwarts as The Snow Ball will be taking place Friday, December 18th. A special Yule Ball, the event will feature a raffle to benefit charity and the Harry Potter Alliance. Of interest to fans is word that the Yule Ball will also see a special appearance of The Remus Lupins as Alex Carpenter performs an acoustic set for the first ever formal Wrock event to be held in Edinburgh, Scotland, home of Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling. Also appearing will be Riddle TM, Romilda Vane and the Chocolate Cauldrons, The Black Sisters and Siriusly Hazza P. For ticket info and more on The Snow Ball, please click here to Facebook.
On a related note, a few tickets remain for Wrockstock, the huge Wizard Rock gathering that will take place here in the US next month on November 6-9th in Missouri. For more, please click here.
sigh i wish i could afford/ get to The Snow Ball, i’d love to see some wrock bands. being a poor student is a hard life lol, i want to see Alex dammit!!!
luvthepuff, the post was referring to the fact that this is the first time a big Wrock show has been put on in Scotland. A few friends and I went to Loch Ness last year for Wrock the Loch but as far as I’m aware this will be the first formal show in Scotland.
If I’m wrong, then any errors are mine not Leaky’s as I sent them an email.
It is wonderful that Wrock is being introduced to Europe and spreading itself internationally. The creativity and richness of this genre knows no barriers.
Sounds like a great time! Too bad for me Scotland is on the other side of the ocean.
