On May 29, 2010, wizards and muggles will unite to rock out in Vienna, Virginia at Sonorus, Virginia’s first wizard rock festival. Wizard rock is music inspired by the Harry Potter books, and it spans across the genres: everything from hip-hop to folk to rock will be represented. A dozen bands from all over the east coast will take to the stage, so don’t miss this chance to embrace your inner book-nerd and rock out.
Thanks for bearing with us as we made changes to suit the new date! This is the official list.
Check out our amazing collection of performers:
Madame Pince and the Librarians
Brian from Draco and the Malfoys
Some of these are bands you know and love. The others are bands you will know and love once you’ve seen them rock the stage at Sonorus. If you haven’t bought your ticket yet, you should do so now. This is one concert you really don’t want to miss.
