Beep Beep! The Scholastic Knight Bus tour launches today in New York City, and we now have our first look at the big purple bus that will be making its way across the country to help promote the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Update: Scholastic has now uploaded more photos of the interior of the bus, and a "tracking map" of the bus tour at this link. As we told you previously, this bus will be stopping at 37 libraries across the US (schedule here), and fans are invited to come aboard the triple decker bus, and record a 20 second video message about their feelings on the Harry Potter series. As seen on the Today Show, the bus will be departing soon, and the US publishers are very excited about this tour.
TLC will have complete coverage of this event today as well. If you are attending any of the Knight Bus stops, please send in your reports and photos to staff@the-leaky-cauldron.org. The Leaky Cauldron This post has been edited by marielle: Jun 1 2007, 09:42 AM |

It looks like the bus is a two story bus painted to look like it has three stories... do we know if that is the case? have a great time Morgan!

I will let you all know what I see on Wednesday. I don't know what to say on the video, but I hear some members from Potterdelphia Meet Up will be there!

I just got back from the event. I wish there had been more adults for me to talk to that are just as obsessed as I am, but I got some pictures, did my video (was a bit flustered) and cheered for Hufflepuffs!

Definitely! I'll send what I have. I wanted to get my picture taken, but didn't quite have the nerve to ask anyone around me... I was alone and surrounded by school children.
