This August, Potterheads across the Philippines are getting their Hogwarts letters—sort of. SM Cinema is casting Accio nostalgia with “Back to Hogwarts: A Harry Potter Movie Marathon,” a magical four-day celebration featuring all eight films from the iconic series.
The first weekend of screenings is underway (August 16–17), with the spell continuing on August 30–31 at select SM Cinema branches nationwide. Tickets are priced at just ₱275 in Metro Manila and ₱230 in provincial branches per movie—no Time-Turner needed.

Over 30 SM Cinema locations are joining the celebration, including SM Aura, Megamall, Mall of Asia, North EDSA, Cebu, Baguio, Pampanga, Iloilo, and more. Yes, even the Muggle world is getting in on the magic.
The SM Cinema lobby at The City Center, SM North EDSA, along with Aura, Megamall, and Mall of Asia, has been transformed into a wizarding haven. Think Hogsmeade vibes—with Butterbeer, of course.
Speaking of which, the famous drink is available at Snack Time counters, no movie ticket required. Alongside Butterbeer, limited-edition wizarding snacks are also being offered at branches like Fairview, Sta. Mesa, Southmall, and Marikina.
Over at SM North EDSA, fans can enjoy the free “Sorting Hat Experience” and themed photo spots. Trivia games also give Potterheads a chance to win magical prizes—no Felix Felicis needed.
Whether you’re Gryffindor brave, Ravenclaw wise, Hufflepuff loyal, or Slytherin ambitious, this is your chance to return to Hogwarts.
