This month the Canadian premiere production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the CAA Ed Mirvish theatre will surpass 250,000 theatre goers. To celebrate this milestone, Toronto audiences will be treated to surprise-and-delight giveaways at all eight performances throughout the week of October 24th, which is when we anticipate the production will welcome its quarter-million patron.

Among the surprise-and-delight giveaways will be show merchandise, delicious treats and a trip to London, UK* ($5000.00 CAD value). Those who arrive early at each performance may be given access to the exclusive VIP Suite (subject to availability), which includes drinks and snacks. The trip for two to London, UK incudes: direct return flights from Toronto, four night’s accommodation in a 4-star West End hotel, and tickets to the original production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Part 1 & 2 at the Palace Theatre.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child continues at the CAA Ed Mirvish Theatre. Tickets are now on sale through March 19, 2023. For tickets and more information about the Toronto production: www.mirvish.com.
