Jurassic Wizarding World Day
Have you ever heard of a dinosaur called the Dracorex? It's named after Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry as it's latin name is Dracorex Hogwartsia meaning Dragon King of Hogwarts.
We thought why not embrace this prehistoric marvel and have a Jurassic Wizarding World Dya, combining the two worlds. Ranger Stu will attend bringing his dinosaur show with him, where children will meet animals related to dinosaurs and get to see some fossils, maybe even meeting a dinosaur too! We will also run activities looking at the dragons themselves and of course plenty other wizarding activities that makes Camp Hogwarts so great!
We can't wait for Tuesday 28th July for this one!
Diagon Alley Day
Have you ever wanted to experience the magical and wonderous Wizarding hub where everyone from the Wizarding World congregates to get their equipment for Hogwarts, or just to go on a magical shopping spree? At Camp Hogwarts you will be able to do just that. Do various tasks to earn some money from Gringott's bank and spend it on Wizarding sweets, an ice cream from Florian Fortescue's or maybe head into the Leaky Cauldron for a Butterbeer or Pumpkin Juice!
Happening Wednesday 29th July 2026.
