Put on your best Weasley-style sweater and take shots of "Voldemalort" at Replay Lincoln Park's Harry Potter-themed holiday pop-up, a month-long homage to Christmastime at Hogwarts. Throughout December, the bar will be decked out like the wizarding school's Great Hall, complete with wreaths, garlands, hanging candles and banners representing all four houses—plus other nods to moments from the beloved series—and offer themed drinks like with cheeky names like Polyjuice Potion and Dementor's Kiss.
Along with free trivia nights, A Very Harry Christmas will also host two Yule Balls in celebration of the season, first on December 21 at 8pm ($25, includes $20 beverage credit) and again on New Year's Eve at 7pm ($50, includes $40 drink credit and midnight champagne toast). Don your best dress robes and stick around on New Year's for a performance from "The Weird Sisters" at 9pm, plus music from DJ Kite until close.
