Grand Rapids Symphony's Harry Potter Shows Will Go On Friday And Saturday

Grand Rapids Symphony's scheduled performances of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire on Friday and Saturday in DeVos Performance Hall will be held as planned.

Both shows at 7:30 p.m. Friday and at 2 p.m. Saturday are sold out. Due to the winter weather emergency, the Grand Rapids Symphony closed its office and box office at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 29. The office and box office will reopen to the public at 2 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 31.

The Harry Potter Film Concert Series returns to the GR Pops stage with the fourth film in the Harry Potter series. Associate Conductor John Varineau will lead the performance of the magical score composed by Patrick Doyle while the entire film plays in high-definition on a 40-foot screen.

Organized in 1930, the Grand Rapids Symphony is nationally recognized for the quality of its concerts and educational programs. Led by Music Director Marcelo Lehninger, Principal Pops Conductor Bob Bernhardt and Associate Conductor John Varineau, nine concert series in a wide range of musical and performance styles plus educational and community outreach programs combine to offer more than 400 performances per year, touching the lives of some 200,000, nearly half of whom are students, senior citizens or people with disabilities. Affiliated organizations include the Grand Rapids Symphony Chorus; Grand Rapids Youth Symphony; and Grand Rapids Symphony Youth Chorus as well as the biennial the Grand Rapids Bach Festival, which returns in 2019. GRS collaborates annually with Opera Grand Rapids and Grand Rapids Ballet and semiannually with the Gilmore Keyboard Festival in Kalamazoo.
