Opening at the World Golf Hall of Fame IMAX® Theater this summer, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince brings the Hogwarts back to the giant screen. Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is colored by two truths: Lord Voldemort is wreaking havoc on much of Britain and teenage hormones are fully raging. In the film, Harry finds a mysterious potions book bearing the inscription, "Property of the Half-Blood Prince.” He begins to explore its custom-made instructions and spells, excelling at creating the potions, but also learning about the ambiguity of magic.
