Harry Potter Trivia Year 2

This was our second year doing a Harry Potter Trivia night and it sold out yet again with 18 teams registered. This event takes about 2 hours and is limited to ages 18+. Big shout out to Kristina Ronald and friends at the Guilderland Public Library for letting me use two of their rounds from a previous trivia night they ran. You will also want to download and install this font on your computer in order to see the fun Harry Potter font on the documents below.

All the rounds were a hit except for the Hogwarts Class Catalog. They thought it was too hard and missed HP in it. So if I were to do this again I would swap that round for something else. 

Round 1: Name the Characters-Name the character from the films whose face is covered with a white circle. We are looking for first and last names of the characters. 

Round 2: New Phone Who Dis?-Name the character who’s texts appear in blue in these made-up text message exchanges.  We are looking for first and last names of the characters (when applicable.)

Round 3: Chapter Illustrations- Using the picture “bank” write the correct matching book number in the blank space. Bonus points if you can name the chapter.

Round 4: Hogwarts Class Catalog-I hope you have been practicing for your NEWT’s because in this round we will go through the Hogwarts class catalog and ask you questions based on those classes. Some of the classes you will find represented include: Divination, Astronomy, Herbology, History of Magic, and Care of Magical Creatures. Fair warning, these are real world questions so if you are a good friend who came tonight with not much Potter knowledge this is your round to shine! 

Round 5: Spells-Remember matching games from your years at Howarts. Well, this is like that. On a separate sheet is the word bank (warning there are more words than questions.) Fill in on the answer sheet the correct spell name. Since this is your final round, each correct answer is worth 2 points.

PRIZES:
I made four different prize packs based on the four Hogwarts Houses. First place team gets to pick their prize pack and so on down the line.

Ravenclaw:

Gryffindor:

Hufflepuff:

Slytherin:


Best Team Name: Pez Dispensers 

Last place: I always give out a last place team prize. It is all a lot of fun with a little light teasing but it also keeps teams from leaving early if they have low scores. This game I gave out bags of jelly slugs 

Best Costume: Lunch Bag
