JK Rowling’s wizarding world just got a little more special on Thursday night.

The first movie from the eight-part series, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, was screened on September 21, at du Forum, Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.

While the Barcelona Symphony Orchestra performs John Williams’ composition,  the high-definition 12-metre screen gave a visual treat of Harry’s journey to wizard-hood and the magical world of Hogwarts.
