Food and drink specials will be abound for this annual event, with decorations throughout the ballpark and P-Nats prizes for the fan who comes closest to guessing the number of beans inside a jar at fan assistance.

The return of Harry Potter Day will once again turn Northwest Federal Field at Pfitzner Stadium into the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for fans of all ages. Seating sections will be sorted into houses, with broom races, costume contests, wand-making stations and more. Fans should be on the lookout for a hidden golden snitch at the ballpark, as whoever finds the golden snitch will receive a special P-Nats prize!
