It may be hard to believe, but the first Harry Potter novel was published back in 1997. That is difficult to believe because it seems like these magical characters and their stories are just as popular as ever. If you need proof, then just take a look at the Harry Potter-themed events that take place across the country, including here in the Bluegrass State. In fact, coming up very soon, you can attend a Harry Potter-themed event in Kentucky called A Wizards Christmas. This traveling attraction will “transfigure” the Louisville Zoo in late January and early February and it’ll be a magical time for the whole family.
If you can quote lines from Harry Potter and if you’ve read the books over and over again, then you’ll want to make plans to visit the Louisville Zoo very soon.
