3rd Annual Hats Off For Veterans Harry Potter Enchanted Yule Ball
About this Event
Step into an evening of magic, elegance, and unforgettable memories at the Third Annual Enchanted Yule Ball hosted by Hats Off For Veterans.
This year’s theme is inspired by the beloved Yule Ball from the Harry Potter series. This adults-only celebration transforms Tejas Hall at Texas Old Town into a magical gathering place where community members come together for a night of enchantment and fellowship to support our Texas veterans. For those not familiar, the ball is a longstanding tradition of the Triwizard Tournament designed to promote international magical cooperation among the three competing wizarding schools: Hogwarts, Beauxbatons, and Durmstrang and hosted on December 25th. This year, we are celebrating in October and adding a fall twist!
Guests will enjoy music and dancing, a captivating magic show, themed treats, and opportunities to win exciting prizes through magical games and activities. Be sure to capture a photo with the iconic Flying Blue Ford Anglia from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, one of the evening's featured attractions.
Whether you arrive in formal attire, a stunning ball gown, or your best Harry Potter-inspired ensemble, you'll be part of an enchanting experience filled with wonder, laughter, and community spirit. Guests are encouraged to showcase their creativity by participating in our costume contest, where prizes will be awarded for the most magical and imaginative looks of the evening.
Sponsorship opportunities are available for individuals and businesses who wish to support this unforgettable event and help further Hats Off For Veterans' mission of serving Texas veterans and their families. Contact [email protected] or call 512-682-5333.
Most importantly, your participation helps Hats Off For Veterans continue providing higher education scholarships, professional development grants, and mental health resources for Texas veterans.
Join us as we celebrate our Texas Veterans, community, and the power of giving back, one enchanted evening at a time.
