Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban, Live In Concert, At Texas Performing Arts

Relive one of the most beloved chapters of the Wizarding World as “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban in Concert” comes to Austin for a one-day event at Bass Concert Hall. The “thrilling tale is accompanied by the music of a live symphony orchestra as Harry soars across the big screen,” bringing the magic to life in real time. From “encountering a Dementor” to “riding the Knight Bus,” this is the third Harry Potter franchise film reimagined as a full cinematic and musical spectacle.

What To Expect: The show “combines the magic of film with the enchanting power of live music,” with “a full symphony orchestra… performing the complete score live while the entire film is projected on a massive 40-foot HD screen.” Inside the theater, the energy mirrors the original premieres—“fans dressed up and ready to throw themselves back into the world of Harry Potter,” with a “palpable energy…that quickly carries over into the theater itself.” Audiences are encouraged to cheer, laugh, and react together, creating “that collective experience… reliving these adventures… in a uniquely different way” every time. The result is a night where the music doesn’t just accompany the story—it deepens it, pulling you back into the magic “no matter how many times you’ve already seen” the film.

What Critics Are Saying About “The Prisoner Of Azkaban” Live:

  • Bustle:  “The magic of those original premieres came rushing back… like memories stored in a pensieve.” Inside the venue, “fans dressed up and ready to throw themselves back into the world of Harry Potter,” creating a “palpable energy…that carrie[s] over into the theater itself.”
  • In Kansas City Magazine: “Every note of the John Williams’ score was spot-on, and it only took a few bars to realize I was witnessing a grand elevation of the original theatrical release. This was the same third installment of the Harry Potter I knew and loved—just better. Way better.”
  • Billboard: “‘The Prisoner of Azkaban’ is arguably the best film in the entire franchise, so getting to relive the same joy, nostalgia, and breadth of emotions that I initially felt all those years ago with a staging such as this has enchanted me once more… one that casts the same spell that made so many of us fall in love with the Harry Potter series all those years ago.”

When: Saturday, February 28 @ 1PM & 7:30PM | Where: Bass Concert Hall | Tickets: Here.
