A midnight feast of magic is taking place at a Colchester bookshop to celebrate the release of the eagerly-awaited new Harry Potter book

To mark the event, on June 20, there will be a midnight feast party at Red Lion Books, High Street, Colchester, open to ticket holders, from 11pm.

It will include games, puzzles and, of course, a spot of magic, all washed down with Snape's potions and Hagrid's rock cakes.

The doors at the store will open to non-ticket holders at midnight for the sale of the new book.
