Universal Orlando Resort have announced three of the stars from the Harry Potter movies who will be making an appearance at 2018's A Celebration of Harry Potter.

James and Oliver Phelps, aka Fred and George Weasley, will be returning to the annual spectacular whilst Stanislav Yanevski (Viktor Krum) will be making his debut appearance.

In the past Oliver and James have been regulars at A Celebration of Harry Potter, but the last time they were at the event was back in 2015. The brothers are always fan favourites and it's great to see them back after a 3 year break.

Stanislav has never appeared at the event, so this will give fans a rare chance to learn all about his experiences working on Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire.

Next year's Celebration will be running across the weekend of 26th - 28th January 2018. The event is filled with panels, workshops and demonstrations. It's the perfect time to hang out with other fans of the franchise. So far there have been no details as to what we can expect from the demonstrations or the Expo but hopefully we won't have to wait long to find out more.
