Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Comes to Seattle in 2026
The wizarding world is headed to the Pacific Northwest. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, the six-time Tony Award–winning play, arrives at Seattle’s Paramount Theatre from August 22 through September 9, 2026 as part of the production’s first-ever North American tour. This is the eighth story in the Harry Potter canon, set 19 years after Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and the only chapter written specifically for the stage. Based on an original story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne, and John Tiffany, the play follows an adult Harry Potter and his son Albus as they confront a world where the past, present, and future collide.
Seattle audiences will experience a theatrical spectacle praised by Forbes as one of the decade’s most defining pop-culture events. The production features jaw-dropping stagecraft, mind-bending illusions designed by Jamie Harrison, original music composed by Imogen Heap, and direction by Tony winner John Tiffany. The Paramount Theatre, a beautifully restored 1928 landmark seating 2,807 in the heart of downtown Seattle, provides the perfect setting for this kind of immersive theatrical magic.

About the North American Tour
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child launched its inaugural North American tour in September 2024 at Broadway In Chicago’s James M. Nederlander Theatre. Since then, the production has played to sold-out crowds in cities including Los Angeles at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre, Washington D.C., Orlando, and Atlanta. Seattle marks one of the final stops on the tour’s western swing, arriving after engagements in Portland’s Keller Auditorium and before continuing to Salt Lake City’s Eccles Theatre. The play also continues to run on Broadway at the Lyric Theatre and in sit-down productions in London, Hamburg, and Tokyo.
What Is Harry Potter and the Cursed Child?
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is a two-part stage play condensed into one thrilling performance. Written by Jack Thorne and directed by John Tiffany, it picks up where Deathly Hallows left off: Harry is now a Ministry of Magic employee, and his youngest son Albus is starting at Hogwarts. When Albus befriends Scorpius Malfoy, son of Harry’s old rival Draco, the two boys spark an adventure that puts everything at risk. The production is celebrated for theatrical illusions that make audiences wonder how such feats are possible on a live stage.
