Harry Potter fans of the Quad Cities, the Five Flags Center in Dubuque will be hosting a free Harry Potter Themed Reception in March!

In celebration of the hit stage show “Potted Potter” coming to Dubuque, the Five Flags Center is hosting a free Harry Potter-themed reception, which will include a costume contest where winners will receive tickets to Five Flags events. The reception will begin at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 4, prior to a performance of “Potted Potter.” "Potted Potter" is a hilarious Harry Potter parody that will make its debut in Dubuque following the reception that evening.

“Potted Potter” combines all seven Harry Potter books into a 70-minute show that includes a live game of Quidditch and a fire-breathing dragon. The show has played to audiences around the world. The Five Flags performance is one of the only Midwest dates on its current North American tour.
