Oxford Street in London is due to display a Harry Potter-themed Christmas lights show this year, as Warner Bros. commemorates 25 years of the franchise. The studio has been recognising the anniversary across licensing and retail channels.

HBO's upcoming Harry Potter series is attracting attention from audiences ahead of its first season. The show has generated considerable buzz in recent months. For readers wanting to return to the books, all illustrated editions, including the newly released Half-Blood Prince volume, are available at a discount.
